Information flow and optimal protocol for a Maxwell-demon single-electron pump.
We study the entropy and information flow in a Maxwell-demon device based on a single-electron transistor with controlled gate potentials. We construct the protocols for measuring the charge states and manipulating the gate voltages, which minimizes irreversibility for (i) constant input power from the environment or (ii) given energy gain. Charge measurement is modeled by a series of detector ...
متن کاملRobot Programming Based on a Single Demon - Stration and User
This paper presents a method that allows to create programs by following the Programming by Demonstration paradigm. Plans for the execution of production processes such as assembly or stacking operation sequences are constructed not only from examples provided by the user through demonstrations. Additionally, the intention the user had in mind when demonstrating a speciic example is acquired th...
متن کاملDynamics of a single-atom electron pump
Single-electron pumps based on isolated impurity atoms have recently been experimentally demonstrated. In these devices the Coulomb potential of an atom creates a localised electron state with a large charging energy and considerable orbital level spacings, enabling robust charge capturing processes. In contrast to the frequently used gate-defined quantum dot pumps, which experience a strongly ...
متن کاملSingle-electron shuttle based on electron spin.
A nanoelectromechanical device based on magnetic exchange forces and electron spin flips induced by a weak external magnetic field is suggested. It is shown that this device can operate as a new type of single-electron "shuttle" in the Coulomb blockade regime of electron transport.
متن کاملRoom Temperature Hydrogen Sensor Based on Single-Electron Tunneling Between Palladium Nanoparticles
In this paper, we present the results of single-electron tunneling in two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal closed packed arrays of palladium nanoparticles. After inspecting the emergence of Coulomb blockade phenomena, we demonstrate the possibilities of using these arrays as a single-electron tunneling based hydrogen sensor. We assumed arrays of palladium nanoparticles with diameters of 3.5 and 6...
