Abstract :
A real time simulation of a single electron transistor and a single-electron control - not gate are presented. The logic operation of the control - not gate is verified using SIMON simulator. Bits of information are represented by the presence or absence of single electrons at conducting islands. The real time simulation of a single electron transistor is made with a MATLAB algorithm and it is based on the changes of the circuit´s free energy. The operation of the circuits is analysed using the Monte Carlo method
