| 7351997 | Single photon receptor A photon receptor having a sensitivity threshold of a single photon is readily fabricated on a nanometric scale for compact and/or large-scale array devices. The fundamental receptor element is a quantum dot of a direct semiconductor, as for example in a semiconduct... | 04/01/2008 |
| 7173275 | Thin-film transistors based on tunneling structures and applications A hot electron transistor includes an emitter electrode, a base electrode, a collector electrode, and a first tunneling structure disposed and serving as a transport of electrons between the emitter and base electrodes. The first tunneling structure includes at leas... | 02/06/2007 |
| 7145170 | Coupled superconducting charge quantum bit device and controlled-not gate using the same A control quantum bit circuit and a target quantum bit circuit each have a quantum box electrode including a superconductor, a counter electrode coupled to the quantum box electrode through a tunnel barrier, and a gate electrode coupled to the quantum box electrode ... | 12/05/2006 |
| 6573526 | Single electron tunneling transistor having multilayer structure A single electron tunneling transistor which has a multi-layer structure exhibiting a single electron tunneling effect even with processing accuracy of not greater than 0.1 μm. The multi-layer structure of the single electron tunneling transistor is char... | 06/03/2003 |
| 6570224 | Quantum-size electronic devices and operating conditions thereof Quantum-size electronic devices comprise electrodes and at least one cluster seperated from the said electrodes by a tunnel-transparent gap.
