Single-electron transistors in electromagnetic environments
The current--voltage $(I--V)$ characteristics of single-electron transistors (SETs) have been measured in various electromagnetic environments. Some SETs were biased with one-dimensional arrays of dc superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). The purpose was to provide the SETs with a magnetic-field-tunable environment in the superconducting state, and a high-impedance environment in the …
