We report the fabrication of single-electron tunneling transistors consisting of a single nmscale aluminum particle connected via tunnel junctions to two leads and capacitively coupled to a third gate electrode. We have used these devices to measure the spectra of discrete electronic quantum energy
The energy levels of electrons in fine semiconductor particles under irradiation were determined by electrochemical measumments. The energy level obtained. which differed from that of a bulky electrode. depends on the relative position of the valence band of the semiconductor to the donor level of a
