摘要：

We describe a fabrication technique in which a nanoscale Au grain is connected to two Cr electrodes. Electron transport in our samples can be fitted to orthodox theory of single electron tunneling on a single particle. In one sample, we can resolve additional steps in current, which are interpreted as discrete quantum states of electrons added to the grain. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
