Physicists Detect Single-Electron Tunneling with Quantum Dots »

Posted By altnrg 7 months, 3 weeks ago in Science & Technology

Detecting the coherent motion of a single electron is a challenge, for the simple reason of scale: the timescale of the coherent motion of a single-electron wave function is in the picosecond regime (one trillionth of a second), which presents significant technical difficulties. However, understanding single-electron dynamics is very important for a wide range of future quantum technologies.
