7.1.1 N ANOCAPACITOR 10/14/2015 J. D ENENBERG - F AIRFIELD U NIV. - EE315 5 Tunnel one electron Classical Model of Capacitance This leads to:

C OULOMB B LOCKADE IN N ANOCAPACITOR 10/14/2015 J. D ENENBERG - F AIRFIELD U NIV. - EE315 6 So, Energetically, We only notice the Blockade effect for very small capacitors And temperature plays a role k b = 86 μeV/K -> k b RT ~ K For || C, let d = L/10 C or T must be very small!

7.1.2 T UNNEL J UNCTIONS 10/14/2015 J. D ENENBERG - F AIRFIELD U NIV. - EE Rt represents the ability of the electron to tunnel (the distance between the plates), while C is the capacitor that we are charging up. Rt cannot be too large, therefore, simply increasing d to decrease C does not make Coulomb Blockade a visible effect Uncertainty: Generally R>>Ro ~ 26kOhms

7.1.3 T UNNEL J UNCTION E XCITED BY C URRENT S OURCE 10/14/2015 J. D ENENBERG - F AIRFIELD U NIV. - EE Classically: But when we allow tunneling: Hard to achieve experimentally

7.1.4 Q UANTUM D OT C IRCUITS 10/14/2015 J. D ENENBERG - F AIRFIELD U NIV. - EE Using to TJ to achieve a small quantum dot (QD), or island, between them makes it easier to control the behavior. Where electron tunneling allows nq electrons to accumulate on the island
