Computational single-electronics
This is a well written book offering a clear and detailed insight into physical processes and numerical procedures essential to the single-electron dynamics in electro-conducting media. The subject of the book is a rapidly developing scientific field which is interesting not only from a purely theoretical point of view but also attracts attention due to a variety of application possibilities in contemporary micro-electronics. The book may be useful both to students as a textbook, and to a more general scientific community dealing with problems involving a single electron dynamics in solids. Following the Introduction, the basic theoretical aspects of charge transport are given in Chapter 2 which includes fundamentals of the theory of single-electron circuits, contributions of higher order effects such as cotunneling, effects of electromagnetic environment, superconducting tunnel junctions, and self heating among others. The next Chapter 3 deals in detail with a number of simulation methods and numerical algorithms for solving relevant equations while Chapter 4 contains descriptions of elementary single-electron circuits such as transistor, turnstile, linear and two-dimensional arrays of junctions, and applications in metrology, electronic memory and logic, neuronal networks, and evolutionary circuit design. The final two chapters tackle the problem of random background charges, and practical technologies of manufacturing particular single-electron setups. At the end of the book, one finds six appendices with additional clarifications, and a list of 347 references cited in the text.
