Modelling and Electrical Characterization of Single Electron Transistor
Abstract: A nano-electronic device with low power consumption, high performance, and quantum effects is the single electron transistor (SET). It's used in charge sensor applications, infrared radiation detectors, and spectroscopy. However, it faces limitations in lithography, co-tunneling effect, low gain, high output impedance, and background charges. Therefore, prior simulation is needed to optimize SET's work function and understanding physics concepts. A master equation approach is used to propose a new model …
