摘要
We fabricated novel quantum nanostructures where the quantum dots are connected with quantum wires using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) on (001) GaAs masked substrates. In particular a GaAs single electron transistor was successfully fabricated and its transport properties were investigated. We prepared two devices which have artificially designed two- or three-prominences in the channel region. These prominences produced a quantum clot connecting with quantum wires in applying the gate voltage. By comparing the electrical properties of the two devices, we discussed a model for formation of quantum dot and tunneling barriers in the channel. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
