  • Abstract
    The European COUNT project exploits two complementary single electron tunneling (SET) devices for use in electrical current metrology: a single electron pump as a current source and a single electron counter as a current meter. Apart from being a quantum current standard, the electron pump could be the basis of a capacitance standard.
