Abstract :
Single electron switch based on Coulomb blockade has recently attracted much attention as a candidate for the nanoelectronic device. Moreover, its application to the digital circuit has already been proposed as the SETL (Single Electron Transistor Logic). In this paper, we report the room temperature operation of single electron switches based on Coulomb blockade in a dual-gate MOSFET by further miniaturization of an electrical quantum dot.
