  • Abstract
    In this paper, we compare our model to conventional master equation method as stated in M. Saitoh et al. (2004) and C. W. J. Beenaker (1991) and discuss the accuracy of our model more quantitatively. The proposed compact analytical SET model with discrete quantum energy levels is verified by the conventional master equation method. Our model provides sufficient accuracy in RT operating applications without using any numerical solutions. It is suitable for large-scale circuit simulations utilizing NDC of RT operating SETs
