💡AIST: The world’s first digital modulation that expresses 1 bit with only one electron is realized
– Extremely minute AC current with arbitrary waveform can be generated accurately over a wide frequency range –
point
Development of digital modulation technology expressing on / off with one electron which is the smallest unit of current
Control electrons one by one using single electron device fabricated by nanofabrication technology
It leads to precise measurement of very small current, contributing to the development of semiconductor devices and fundamental research of nanostructural physics
The details of this technology will be announced at Applied Physics Express, which will be published on February 1, 2018 (UK time).
