摘要
We investigate the fabrication of electrical contacts using ion- and electron-beam induced deposition of platinum at the sub-mu m scale. Halos associated with the metal surface decoration are characterized electrically in the 0.05-2 mu m range using transport measurements, conducting atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe microscopy. In contrast with IBID, EBID electrodes are shown to exhibit a low leakage resistance (above 1 M Omega) at the sub-100 nm scale, and are thus suitable to achieve resist-free electrical contacts for transport measurements on nanostructures. Four-point transport data using mu m-spaced EBID contacts are provided for a multiwalled carbon nanotube. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
