2. 1. Current measurement by real-time counting of single charges

   Author : Jonas Bylander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; array of tunnel junctions; Coulomb blockade; radio frequency single electron transistor; SET oscillations; time correlated tunnelling; metrology; current standard; SET; charge solitons;

   Abstract : The first real-time observation of time correlated single-electron tunnelling is reported in this thesis. This is a direct detection of charge discreteness in an electrical current.When a current, I, flows through a chain of metallic islands, connected by small tunnel junctions, a lattice of charges is formed due to the Coulomb repulsion.

   Abstract : Interactions between physical bodies constantly affect their properties. This thesis presents a theoretical study on the effects of interaction in few-body nanowire quantum dots. READ MORE

7. 5. Electromechanical Interactions in Shuttle Systems and Carbon Nanotube Relays

   Author : Tomas Nord; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coulomb blockade; carbon nanotubes; memory device; nanorelay; single electron tunneling; van der Waals forces; NEMS; shuttle transport; mesoscopic; nanoelectromechanical systems;

   Abstract : In this thesis we theoretically investigate two kinds of nanoscale systems where there is a strong electromechanical coupling, i.e. an intricate relation between the Coulomb forces that can appear in these systems and the displacements of parts of the systems that they cause. READ MORE
