摘要
Single-electron transistors (SETs) are ultra-sensitive charge sensors. Aiming to develop a radio-frequency single-electron-transistor (RF-SET) scanning probe system, we build a complete device/circuit model to evaluate the charge sensitivity and the spatial resolution. Simulations of a gedunken experiment in which a silicon RF-SET probe scans a nanowire device suggest a charge sensitivity in the order of 10(-5)-10(-3) e/Hz(1/2) and a spatial resolution better than 100 nm. The dynamic range and the linearity of the scanning probe are also discussed. The model would provide a quantitative interpretation for future real imaging experiment and an operation guidance for a realistic RF-SET scanning probe system.
