A quantum-dot spin qubit with coherence limited by charge noise and fidelity higher than 99.9%    pp102 - 106
Jun Yoneda, Kenta Takeda, Tomohiro Otsuka, Takashi Nakajima, Matthieu R. Delbecq et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0014-x

Thermoelectric spin voltage in graphene    pp107 - 111
Juan F. Sierra, Ingmar Neumann, Jo Cuppens, Bart Raes, Marius V. Costache et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0015-9

The spin accumulation in graphene can be enhanced by a thermal gradient as a result of a thermoelectric spin voltage owing to an effective spin-dependent Seebeck coefficient.

 

Direct-current triboelectricity generation by a sliding Schottky nanocontact on MoS2 multilayers    pp112 - 116
Jun Liu, Ankur Goswami, Keren Jiang, Faheem Khan, Seokbeom Kim et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0019-5

A large triboelectric direct current can be generated via the nanoscale sliding friction of a conductive-AFM tip on a MoS2 thin film.

 

Humidity-controlled rectification switching in ruthenium-complex molecular junctions    pp117 - 121
Huseyin Atesci, Veerabhadrarao Kaliginedi, Jose A. Celis Gil, Hiroaki Ozawa, Joseph M. Thijssen et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0016-8

The rectification ratio of a molecular junction made of a self-assembled monolayer of di-nuclear ruthenium-complex molecules can be varied by more than three orders of magnitude by controlling relative humidity.

 

Peltier cooling in molecular junctions    pp122 - 127
Longji Cui, Ruijiao Miao, Kun Wang, Dakotah Thompson, Linda Angela Zotti et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0020-z

A calorimetry technique with picowatt sensitivity enables the experimental observation of cooling in molecular junctions.

 

Electrical control of charged carriers and excitons in atomically thin materials    pp128 - 132
Ke Wang, Kristiaan De Greve, Luis A. Jauregui, Andrey Sushko, Alexander High et al.
doi:10.1038/s41565-017-0030-x

Formation of a homogeneous two-dimensional electron gas in transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures allows for efficient electrical control of charge carriers and excitons.
