Single electron tunnelling through high‐<i>Q</i> single‐wall carbon nanotube NEMS resonators

Single electron tunnelling through high‐<i>Q</i> single‐wall carbon nanotube NEMS resonators

By first lithographically fabricating contact electrodes and then as last step growing carbon nanotubes with chemical vapour deposition across the ready-made chip, many potential contamination mechanisms for nanotube devices can be avoided. Combining this with pre-defined trenches on the chip, such that the nanotubes are freely suspended above the substrate, …
