Published purpose

Designs for devices that use the atomic silicon quantum dot technique will be determined. This design will attempt to tailor the SET array to optimize the size and arrangement of the SETs and the associated connections so that the capacitance and consequently the charge energy, Ec, make its operation as a CBT at high temperatures possible. The method to interface the SET to the macro-world to enable the measurement of the temperature-dependant electrical conductance change will be developed.
