Abstract

We propose and demonstrate a new hybrid technology for fabricating submicron vertical resonant tunnelling structures with separate gates which has the potential to allow single-electron charging of, and single-electron tunnelling through, quantum dot structures containing just a `few' electrons to be investigated in new ways.
