Abstract :
In this paper, we have succeeded in observing the coexistence of the Coulomb charging effect and the coherent transport of holes in a carbon nanotube of length 4.5 μm at 8.6 K. A back gate type carbon nanotube field effect transistor was fabricated for this purpose. The drain current-gate voltage characteristics, Coulomb diamond characteristics, and periodic negative differential conductance were measured. Results confirm the coexistence of the Coulomb charging effect and ballistic transport of the holes in semiconductive carbon nanotubes.
