Abstract

Aluminium nanofilms have been fabricated by evaporation coating technology. Their surface morphology and electrical conductivity were investigated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), four-point probe technology and a semiconductor parameter analyzer. It was found that the resistivity of the aluminium nanofilms was nonlinear at normal temperatures with currents of milliamperes, similar to the Coulomb blockade effect. This phenomenon of resistivity is caused by different thicknesses and nano-structured surfaces.
