Abstract

We positioned semiconducting multiwalled carbon nanotube, using an atomic force microscope, between two gold electrodes at SiO2 surface. Transport measurements exhibit single-electron effects with a charging energy of 24 K. Using the Coulomb staircase model, the capacitances and resistances between the tube and the electrodes can be characterized in detail.
