To enhance the con nection probability, the width of the resist groove (140 nm) was designed to be approximately five times larger than the diameter of gold NPs (30 nm). Two-stage deposition of gold NPs was employed to form bridge connections between the source and drain electrodes. Dithiol molecules coated on surfaces of gold NPs worked as tunnel barriers. 5 of 12 samples exhibited Coulomb blockade characteristics, in one of which the gate response was confirmed.}, title = {One-dimensional array of small tunnel junctions fabricated using 30-nm-diameter gold nanoparticles placed in a 140-nm-wide resist groove}, volume = {57}, year = {2018} }
