  • Abstract
    A charge-coupled device (CCD) that can manipulate single electrons (holes) was fabricated and found to operate successfully. We demonstrated that the fabricated device can transfer a single hole and also detect its position by a novel charge sensing method based on the electron-hole system in a Si quantum wire. This was the first demonstration of manipulating an elementary charge in Si.
