Abstract
In this paper we will report a method that allows controlled positioni ng of individual nanoparticles between e-beam defined metal electrodes using AFM technique, having not only the imaging capability in the AF M for inspection of the positioning, but also in-situ electrical monit oring of the assembly procedure. This means that an electrical signal is recorded when an electrical link between the lateral metal electrod es, via the positioned particles, is established.
