We present a low energy-theory for non-linear transport in finite-size interacting single-wall carbon nanotubes. It is based on a microscopic model for the interacting p<Subscript>z</Subscript> electrons and successive bosonization. We consider weak coupling to the leads and derive equations of motion for the reduced...</subscript>

Tunneling spectra of InAs nanocrystals anchored to gold via linker molecules or deposited onto graphite were measured using scanning tunneling microscopy, in a double-barrier tunnel-junction configuration. The effects of the junction symmetry on the tunneling spectra, due to both the voltage...
