摘要:

我们预测和分析的机械不稳定性和相应的自持机械振荡发生在纳米机电系统组成的金属碳纳米管(CNT)悬浮在两个超导导线和耦合到扫描隧道显微镜(STM)的提示。我们发现,这样的现象是实现在存在的CNT和超导导线之间的相干Andreev隧穿,和电压偏置的STM针尖和CNT之间的非相干单电子隧穿。将碳纳米管视为单能级量子点,我们证明了力学不稳定性受约瑟夫森相位差、电子能级相对位置和电荷流方向的控制.数值计算发现,自持振荡的出现导致直流电流的大幅抑制。

英文摘要:

We predict and analyze mechanical instability and corresponding self-sustained mechanical oscillations occurring in a nanoelectromechanical system composed of a metallic carbon nanotube (CNT) suspended between two superconducting leads and coupled to a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip. We show that such phenomena are realized in the presence of both the coherent Andreev tunneling between the CNT and superconducting leads, and an incoherent single electron tunneling between the voltage biased STM tip and CNT. Treating the CNT as a single-level quantum dot, we demonstrate that the mechanical instability is controlled by the Josephson phase difference, relative position of the electron energy level, and the direction of the charge flow. It is found numerically that the emergence of the self-sustained oscillations leads to a substantial suppression of DC electric current.
