Abstract :
The probabilistic description of discrete events of single electron transport, as well as photon-inclusive processes in nanosized regions of single-electron vacuum and thin-film microdevices is not be complete. Delocalized solitonic single-particle configurations are considered in the present paper as corresponding deterministic approach. Nonlinear equation of the Klein-Gordon type is considered. In the frames of the approach, discrete transport of electrons in one-dimensional matrix of nanosized regions separated by tunnel gaps is considered. Staircase current-voltage characteristic and current oscillations for this structure are defined by Coulomb blockade effects and discrete single-electron propagation in the chain.
