5 . 3 Single - Electron Capacitance Spectroscopy : Study of Quantum Dots
We have extended our ultra-sensitive capacitance measurements to investigate several systems to which it is not feasible or desirable to make direct electrical contact. Specialized field-effect transistors (FETs) and single-electron transistors (SETs) sense electrical charge inside the semiconductor with noise evels from 10-2 to as a low as 10-5 electrons //H z, and the motion of single electro...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of a Molecular Single-Electron Transistor
In this paper, to understand the concept of coupling, molecule density of states that coupled to the metal electrodes will be explained then, based on this concept, a weak and strong coupling for the molecules attached to the metal electrodes will be described. Capacitance model is used to explore the connection of addition energy with the Electron affinity and the ionization energy of the mole...

متن کاملInductive single-electron transistor.
We demonstrate a sensitive method of charge detection based on radio-frequency readout of the Josephson inductance of a superconducting single-electron transistor. Charge sensitivity 1.4 x 10(-4) e/square root Hz, limited by a preamplifier, is achieved in an operation mode which takes advantage of the nonlinearity of the Josephson potential. Owing to reactive readout, our setup has more than 2 ...
متن کاملSingle electron transport in quantum dots
We review our experimental study on the electron transport in quantum dots, formed in the two-dimensional electron gas in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures. Single electron transport with well-resolved zero-dimensional energy levels is described for both single and coupled quantum dots. Effects of microwave irradiation are also studied, and photon assisted tunneling was observed between two discrete...
