Fabrication of tunnel barriers and single electron transistors in suspended multi-wall carbon nanotubes

Fabrication processes have been developed to form the tunnel barriers in the suspended multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Individual MWCNTs are positioned under the optical microscope to bridge them between the two metal electrodes. The tunnel barrier is formed by irradiating them with focused Ga...
