Abstract
Scanning tunneling spectroscopy is employed in studies of single InAs nanoc rystals, 2-8 nm in diameter. The I-V curves exhibit size-dependent charging and quantum size effects, from which atomic-like states having S and P sym metries are identified. Excellent agreement is found between level spacings observed by tunneling and the corresponding optical transitions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
