Abstract
A single-electron molecular transistor is implemented at room temperat ure on the basis of a stable Langmuir monomolecular film consisting of a mixture of stearic acid and carborane clusters. Control of the tunn eling current with the aid of an independent voltage source is recorde d at room temperature. The results are compared with the ''orthodox'' theory of single-charge electronics.
