  • Abstract
    The Bloch oscillating transistor is a new mesoscopic current amplifier with estimated white current noise below 1 fA/Hz1/2 and potentially low 1/f noise. The operation principle and recent results of the BOT are presented and its potential in closing the quantum metrology triangle is analysed
