Abstract
Recently some exotic quantum condensed materials have been found, for instance, graphene and topological insulators, etc. Graphene is a single atomic layer consisted of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal honeycomb structure with a novel quantum state and linear dispersion of the energy band structure. The topological insulator is a bulk insulating material with a Dirac-type conducting surface state (SS) and its dissipationless transport of topological surface state(TSS) protected by the time-reversal symmetry. Both of them have shown unique crystal and electronic structures and other properties, attracting potential applications to electronics, photonics, spintronics and quantum computation, etc. However, many problems remain to be solved, we have used atomic clusters deposited on their surfaces and fabricate them like field effect transistors in order to measure their transport properties and observed unexpected phenomena which might be useful in near future. (1) The electronic coherence is greatly enhanced after Pd cluster deposition. Moreover, the saturation is observed at zero temperature both before and after cluster deposition. (2) We build the graphene-based spintronic devices by using the Ir clusters coating, where the spin relaxation period can be tuned in an order with a back gate voltage. The spin relaxation is believed to arise from the Kane-Mele spin orbit coupling in graphene, and spin orbit coupling strength has 5.5meV. (3) The electronic transport of surface states of topological insulator Bi2Te3 from AB to AAS interference can be modulated by Co clusters.
