  • Abstract
    Single electron effects have been observed in devices measured at temperatures as low as 0.4 K. The charge noise was measured in electrometers and evidence of background charge fluctuations was observed. Custom-made micro-coax cables have also been fabricated and their measured attenuation is found to increase with the 3/4´th power of frequency, in contrast to the 1/2 power dependence expected from the theory.
