Abstract(in English) We fabricated Sn and Sb nanocrystals in thin thermally grown SiO_2 film via low energy ion implantation.The formed Sn and Sb nanocrystals hae good size and position uniformity.A narrow as-implanted profile due to the low energy ion implantation and the compressive strain that exists near the transition region are considered to contribute to the uniformity.The current-voltage characteristics of the diode structures including the above Sn or Sb nanocrystals show a Coulomb blockade region around 0 V and a Coulomb staircase at 4.2K.The Coulomb blockade region was observed until reaching a temperature of 77K.The fabrication technique offers the possibility of developing practical single electron devices
