Fabrication and Electrical Properties of the Monolayer of Oxidized Nanometer-Size Metallic Granules

Abstract

A new method for the fabrication of 10 nm metallic granules is suggested, which is based on fission of liquid drops produced by laser oblation. A monolayer of such granules was deposited on the insulating substrate and then partly oxidized in air. It is shown that the conductivity of this layer, measured in lateral geometry, occurs due to electron tunneling between oxidized metallic granules having the charging energy as high as 300 meV.
