Abstract
A method of fabricating individually contacted quantum dots of dimensi ons down to 0.14 mum is presented. The dots are defined by electron-be am lithography and electron cyclotron resonance etching. The GaAs/AlGa As heterostructures include additional layers beneath the defined dots to serve as a spectrometer to analyze the level structure in the dots . The conductance of the dots scales well with area over six orders of magnitude.
