摘要：
The multiple-tunnel junction (MTJ) produced by forming a side-gated constriction in delta-doped GaAs is demonstrated as a basic component of single electronics. A single-electron memory cell, in which one bit of information is represented by the excess or lack of a precise number of electrons, was fabricated and the operation was confirmed at liquid helium temperature. A new switching element, the variable-barrier MTJ, and a new circuit, the single-charge injection logic circuit, are proposed.
