The authors report on transport phenomena in single self-assembled GaN quantum dots using metallic leads with a nanoscale gap. The nitride device works as a single electron transistor. Measurement of the stability diagram at shows Coulomb blockade regions with a single electron charging energy of about .

We focused on the relatively large dots because the transport study in the smaller dots was difficult due to the high resistance at the low temperatures.
