| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A nanogap fabrication and measurement device has been proposed, fabricated and tested, in order to measure the thermal and electrical transportation properties of a very narrow conformal gap (called nanogap) of a few to tens of nm wide and a few micrometer square. The device actuates thermal actuator to cause cleave fracture on a single crystal silicon structure and to form the nanogap consisting from a pair of fracture surfaces separated from one body. We successfully fracture-fabricated a nanogap by operating the device. By measuring the voltage-current relationship of the gap of 120 nm wide, we confirmed that the electron emission between the nanogap.
