Abstract

We report room-temperature Coulomb blockade in a single layer graphene three-terminal single-electron transistor fabricated using feedback-controlled electroburning. The small separation between the side gate electrode and the graphene quantum dot results in a gate coupling up to 3 times larger compared to the value found for the back gate electrode. This allows for an effective tuning between the conductive and Coulomb blocked state using a small side gate voltage of about 1 V. The technique can potentially be used in the future to fabricate all-graphene based room temperature single-electron transistors or three terminal single molecule transistors with enhanced gate coupling.
