Gate-Tunable Quantum Dot Formation Between Localized-Resonant States In A Few-Layer Mos2

We demonstrate a gate-tunable quantum dot (QD) located between two potential barriers defined in a few-layer MoS2. Although both local gates used to tune the potential barriers have disorder-induced QDs, we observe diagonal current stripes in current resonant islands formed by the alignment of the Fermi levels of the electrodes and the energy levels of the disorder-induced QDs, as evidence of the gate-tunable QD. We demonstrate that the charging energy of the designed QD can be tuned in the range of 2-6 meV by changing the local-gate voltages in similar to 1 V.
