A common approach to this task is to use a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). However, this approach has a number of drawbacks, to overcome which, we propose another method -- tunneling spectroscopy of SCNTs on a chip using a tunneling contact. This method is simpler, cheaper and technologically advanced than the STM. Fabrication of a tunnel contact can be easily integrated into any technological route, therefore, a tunnel contact can be used, for example, as an additional tool in characterizing any devices based on individual CNTs. In this paper we demonstrate a simple technological procedure that results in fabrication of good-quality tunneling contacts to carbon nanotubes.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=1269), last updated on Sun, 09 May 2021 23:46:24 -0500", doi="10.1080/1536383X.2019.1671365", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1080/1536383X.2019.1671365" }
