The tunable single electron effect and Coulomb oscillations were observed in Si nanowire transistors. By measuring the channel current as function of applied back-gate and side-gate voltage, the tunable single electron effect and Coulomb oscillations are investigated. From the differential conductance characteristics, the Coulomb diamonds are clearly observed due to the gate voltage-induced quantum dots formation in the Si nanowire.
