About this document
Coulomb Blockade in Single Electron Transistors is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes the physics of low dimensional semiconductors, specifically discussing Coulomb blockade and single electron transistors (SETs). Key points: 1) An SET consists of a quantum dot connected to source and drain contacts by tunnel barriers. Electron transport occurs via tunneling that is blocked when dot energy levels are fully occupied (Coulomb blockade). 2) Measurements of an InAs SET show Coulomb oscillations in current vs gate voltage. The periodicity is 40mV, relating to the chargi
