Monolayers of colloidally synthesized cobalt-platinum nanoparticles ofdifferent diameters characterized by TEM (transmission electron microscopy)were deposited on structured silicon oxide substrates and characterized by SEM(scanning electron microscopy), GISAXS (grazing incidence x-ray scattering),and electric transport measurements. The highly ordered nanoparticle films showa thermally activated electron hopping between spatially adjacent particles atroom temperature and Coulomb blockade at low temperatures. We present a novelapproach to experimentally determine the particles charging energies givingvalues of 6.7-25.4 meV dependent on the particles size and independent of theinterparticle distance. These observations are supported by FEM (finite elementmethod) calculations showing the self-capacitance to be the determining valuewhich only depends on the permittivity constant of the surrounding space andthe particles radius.
