Abstract
Insight on electron transport through a disordered tunneling barrier is obtained using a scanning tunneling microscope operated at room temperature. We interpret the experimental results within the frame of incoherent sequential charging of localized states in the tunneling barrier by single electrons. This kind of single electron transport mechanism is somewhat different from the one described by the conventional theory of single electron tunneling. We explain the difference and present experimental evidence.
