    Thin, narrow silicon-on-insulator n-channel MOSFETs have been fabricated. The drain current characteristics, when measured as a function of gate voltage at low temperature, exhibit a series of oscillations, which is characteristic of current transport in one-dimensional systems (quantum wires). Theoretical calculation of the current oscillations in the device show reasonable agreement with the experimental characteristics
