We report on low temperature carrier transport property of quantum dot (QD) devices based on hexagonal boron nitride-encapsulated tetralayer graphene heterostructures. In the device with single dot geometry, we demonstrate a stochastic Coulomb blockade, suggesting formation of multiple dots coupled each other in series/parallel. Under a perpendicular magnetic field, the overlapping Coulomb diamonds are lifted at zero bias voltage and the charging energy is decreased. These imply the suppression of multiple dots behavior. Our results pave a way toward the investigation of interlayer correlation on single electron transport in few-layer graphene QDs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
