چکیده

We have investigated the suppression of single-electron charging effects in metallic single-electron transistors when the conductance of the tunnel junctions becomes larger than the conductance quantum e2yh. We find that the Coulomb blockade of the conductance is progressively shifted at lower temperatures. The experimental results agree quantitatively with the available 1yT expansion at high temperature, and qualitatively with the predictions of an effective two-state model at low temperature, which predicts at T ­ 0 a blockade of conductance for all gate voltages.

Conduction coefficient modeling in bilayer graphene based on schottky transistors

Nowadays carbon nanoparticles are applied on the island of single electron transistor and Nano-transistors. The basis of single electron devices (SEDs) is controllable single electron transfer between small conducting islands. Based on the important points in quantum mechanics, when a wave passes through several spatial regions with different boundaries, the wave function of the first region di...

Room 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...

Large Magnetoresistance Ratio in Ferromagnetic Single-Electron Transistors in the Strong Tunneling Regime

We study transport through a ferromagnetic single-electron transistor. The resistance is represented as a path integral, so that systems where the tunnel resistances are smaller than the quantum resistance can be investigated. Beyond the low order sequential tunneling and co-tunneling regimes, a large magnetoresistance ratio at sufficiently low temperatures is found. In the opposite limit, when...

Enhancement of Josephson quasiparticle current in coupled superconducting single-electron transistors

The Josephson quasiparticle (JQP) cycle in a voltage-biased superconducting single-electron transistor (SSET) combines coherent Cooper pair tunneling with incoherent quasiparticle decay. We have measured the influence of current flow through an independently-biased SSET on the JQP cycle when the two SSET’s have a strong mutual capacitive coupling. We find, among other effects, that the JQP curr...
