Quantum steering of electron wave function in an InAs Y-branch switch

arXiv:cond-mat/0408644 · doi:10.1063/1.1867554

Abstract

We report experiments on gated Y-branch switches made from InAs ballistic electron wave guides. We demonstrate that gating modifies the electron wave functions as well as their interference pattern, causing the anti-correlated, oscillatory transconductances. Such previously unexpected phenomenon provides evidence of steering the electron wave function in a multi-channel transistor structure.
