Quantum dot (QD) arrays on surfaces, in the form of nanoporous networks, are candidates for studying fundamental physical phenomena such as 2DEG confinement. Tunability has been accomplished by varying the pore size, geometrical shape and molecule substrate interactions. Moreover, inter-dot coupling is validated by photoemission through the generation of new dispersive bands and modulated through thermodynamics and the condensation of guest elements.
Here, we validate the 2DEGs' modification through inter-dot barrier width by STM/STS/AFM, ARPES and extended model calculations. We engineer the inter-dot barrier width by substitution of a single atom in a haloaromatic compound and tune the confinement properties at each nanopore, affecting the degree of QD intercoupling both on bulk and thin Ag films alike [1].
