We have fabricated and characterized a single hole transistor in an undoped AlGaAs-GaAs heterostructure. Our device consists of a p-type quantum dot, populated using an electric field rather than modulation doping. Low temperature transport measurements reveal periodic conductance oscillations due to Coulomb blockade. We find that the low frequency charge noise is comparable to that in modulation-doped GaAs single electron transistors (SETs), and almost an order of magnitude better than in silicon SETs.

Radio frequency reflectometry is demonstrated in a sub-micron undoped AlGaAs/GaAs device. Undoped single electron transistors (SETs) are attractive candidates to study single electron phenomena due to their charge stability and robust electronic prop erties after thermal cycling. However these devices require a large top-gate which is unsuitable for the fast and sensitive radio frequency reflectometry technique. Here we demonstrate rf reflectometry is possible in an undoped SET.
We report a study of transport blockade features in a quantum dot single-electron transistor, based on an undoped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure. We observe suppression of transport through the ground state of the dot, as well as negative differential c onductance at finite source-drain bias. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of these features indicate the couplings between the leads and the quantum dot states are suppressed. We attribute this to two possible mechanisms: spin effects which determine whether a particular charge transition is allowed based on the change in total spin, and the interference effects that arise from coherent tunneling of electrons in the dot.
We have fabricated AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure devices in which the conduction channel can be populated with either electrons or holes simply by changing the polarity of a gate bias. The heterostructures are entirely undoped, and carriers are instead induced electrostatically. We use these devices to perform a direct comparison of the scattering mechanisms of two-dimensional (2D) electrons ($mu_textrm{peak}=4times10^6textrm{cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$) and holes ($mu_textrm{peak}=0.8times10^6textrm{cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$) in the same conduction channel with nominally identical disorder potentials. We find significant discrepancies between electron and hole scattering, with the hole mobility being considerably lower than expected from simple theory.

The shape of metallic constrictions of nanoscopic dimensions (necks) formed using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is shown to depend on the fabrication procedure. Submitting the neck to repeated plastic deformation cycles makes possible to obta in long necks or nanowires. Point-contact spectroscopy results show that these long necks are quite crystalline, indicating that the repeated cycles of plastic deformation act as a mechanical annealing of the neck.
We describe a technique to fabricate closely spaced electron-hole bilayers in GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures. Our technique incorporates a novel method for making shallow contacts to a low density ($<10^{11}cm^{-2}$) 2-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) t hat do not require annealing. Four terminal measurements on both layers (25nm apart) are possible. Measurements show a hole mobility $mu_{h}>10^{5}{rm cm}^{2}{rm V}^{-1}{rm s}^{-1}$ and an electron mobility $mu_{e}>10^{6}{rm cm}^{2}{rm V}^{-1}{rm s}^{-1}$ at 1.5K. Preliminary drag measurements made down to T=300mK indicate an enhancement of coulomb interaction over the values obtained from a static Random Phase Approximation (RPA) calculation.
