a, On/off switching of the device with a 2 kHz square wave applied to the gate at Vsd = 100 mV at 80 K (top) and 10 K (bottom). Longer time traces and intermediate temperatures are shown in Supplementary Fig. 6-1. b, Differential conductance map measured as a function of temperature and gate voltage at Vsd = 0 mV. c, Conductance for the on state (green), the off state (purple), and the conductance on/off ratio (orange) at Vsd = 20 mV. The error bars represent the standard deviation of the conductance in a 50 mV gate-voltage window (19 data points) around the on- and off-state value.
