In one embodiment of the invention, a method of fabricating a SAM device comprises the steps of: (a) providing a substrate having a top surface and a first metal electrode disposed on the top surface, (b) annealing the first metal electrode, (c) forming a SAM layer on a major surface of the first electrode, the SAM layer having a free surface such that the SAM is disposed between the free surface and the major surface of the first electrode, and (d) forming a second metal electrode on the free surface of the molecular layer. Forming step (d) includes the step of (d1) depositing the second metal electrode in at least two distinct depositions separated by an interruption period of time when essentially no deposition of the second metal takes place. SAM FETs fabricated using this method are also described.
