چکیده

The purpose of our work is to evaluate single-electron devices fabricated using resistive microstrips and to investigate its applicability for single-electron logic. In this article, we present our work on the fabrication and characterization of SETs with gold islands and CrOx resistive microstrips. The electron transport mechanism of CrOx resistors is also discussed and hypothesis of two types of possible junctions are given as the explanation for the experimental results. q 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Fabrication and characterization of Au island single-electron transistors with CrOx step edge junctions

Single-electron transistors fabricated using Au islands and CrOx resistive microstrips are reported. To investigate the occurrence of Coulomb blockade in these devices, three types of device designs have been tested. Typical single-electron behavior, conductance modulation by the gate, is observed in the devices which had small overlap area with the gold island. Electron transport mechanism of ...

The Analysis of Coulomb Blockade in Fullerene Single Electron Transistor at Room Temperature

The Graphene based single electron transistor (SET) as a coulomb blockade device need to be explored .It is a unique device for high-speed operation in a nano scale regime. A single electron transfers via the coulomb barriers, but its movement may be prevented by coulomb blockade, so its effect is investigated in this research. The conditions of coulomb blockade and its controlling factors such...

Single-electron Coulomb blockade in a nanometer field-effect transistor with a single barrier

The first experimental study of a new nanometer field-effect transistor with a single barrier in its one-dimensional channel is presented. At low temperatures and as charge density in the channel was varied, nine reproducible periodic oscillations of conductance, in addition to 2e2/h conductance plateaus, were observed before the onset of the first 2e’/h conductance plateau. It was found experi...
