Notes:
Anomalously high values of power α (1.6 〈 α 〈 12) are found in power laws in conductanceversus energy relationships in carbon-nanotube peapod quantum dots, encapsulating a chain of C60 molecules. Thispower is controllable by the applied back gate voltage. Atomic-like behaviors with doubly degenerate groundstates are also found by single electron spectroscopy. They reveal that a portion of power originates from theTomonaga-Luttinger liquid via the occupied electronic levels, which originate from the subbands unique to thepeapods. This observation also clarify that the encapsulated C60 molecules do not directly contribute to the abovequantum phenomena in peapods
