We present a technique to contact individual silicon quantum dots (QDs) by nano-electrodes making use of a self-alignment effect. Starting from an ultra thin silicon on insulator (SOI) substrate we employ self-assembled gold colloidal particles as an etch mask. These particles are deposited onto the substrate using aminosilane [3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyltrimethoxysilane] as an adhesion agent yielding a sub-monolayer sample coverage. The QDs are then fabricated by applying a CF4 reactive ion etch (RIE) process to remove the silicon layer everywhere except below the gold colloids. Subsequently, the colloidal mask is removed by a wet chemical etch and 100-200 nm wide metal wires are patterned by electron beam lithography (EBL) onto the QD-covered samples. A nanometer-sized gap is created in these wires by a controlled electromigration process. The metal wires will preferentially break at the positions of the QDs, because the metal layer is dilated there resulting in a locally higher current density. This leads to a self-alignment effect of the evolving nano-electrodes with respect to the QDs. The native oxide of the silicon QDs is used as a tunneling barrier leading to a single-electron device. The oxide thickness can be increased in a controlled manner by self-limiting thermal oxidation to adjust the tunneling resistance. Finally, I(V)-traces of these devices are collected at liquid helium temperature. They show clear Coulomb blockade behavior as well as Coulomb staircase features.

In this paper we present a novel approach to fabricate single-electron devices utilizing different self-organization and self-alignment effects. Silicon quantum dots (QDs) are obtained employing reactive ion etching (RIE) into a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate with a self-assembled etch mask. Electrodes with nanometer separation are fabricated and aligned to the QDs by means of a controlled electromigration process. The tunneling rates of the devices are defined by the native oxide covering the silicon QDs and can be adjusted by self-limiting thermal oxidation. The devices show clear Coulomb blockade behavior as well as Coulomb staircase features. In some samples also a gate influence is present giving rise to Coulomb diamonds in the differential conductance diagram.

Optical imaging through a thin planar silver layer has been achieved by utilizing near-field lithography techniques. A 120 nm thick silver lens that was placed 60 nm below a patterned mask, imaged the mask’s features onto a photosensitive material located 60 nm below the silver. The entire structure was exposed from above with a mercury lamp. Features sizes as small as 350 nm (at a 700 nm period) were imaged onto the photosensitive material, demonstrating the lensing ability of the planar silver slab.
