Measurements through nano electromechanical systems and single-molecule junctions have shown that electronic transport is strongly influenced by the mechanical motion, leading to transport assisted by emission of vibrons. Furthermore, a strong electron-vibron coupling is expected to lead to a suppression of transport through the vibronic ground state, known as Franck-Condon blockade. Here we report on transport in a quantum dot formed in a partly suspended carbon nanotube devices. The data show Coulomb diamonds with a clear fourfold degeneracy and an experimental confirmation of Franck-Condon blockade mechanism. More interestingly, we show that our four-terminal quantum device allows us to tune the electron-vibron coupling. In particular, we focus on the investigation of spin states and the tunability of electron-phonon coupling in the suspended carbon nanotube quantum dot.
