Abstract
In this work, we build up InAs as a platform for mesoscopic physics toward the eventual goal of analog quantum simulation. Specifically, we demonstrate in an InAs 2DEG quantum point contacts and quantum dots that are operational in the quantum Hall regime. Together, these serve as the basic circuit elements for controlling the flow of electrons at the nanoscale. In analogy to quantum optics, point contacts can serve as beam splitters and quantum dots can serve as artificial atoms, and having these building blocks allows us to further probe electron interactions. Our highly transparent, hybrid metal-semiconductor quantum dots have charging energies several times larger than has been achieved in other solid-state platforms, and this encourages the potential for scaling to quantum dot arrays and simulating many-body phenomena like the charge Kondo effect.
