ABSTRACT:
A mechanically adjustable tunnelling junction includes two electrodes defining a gap supported on substrates. Spacers maintain the electrodes in spaced apart relation. At least one of substrates is mechanically deformable, whereby the application of an external force to the substrates decreases the gap to the range where tunnelling will occur.
