Standards of Current and Capacitance Based on Single-Electron Tunneling Devices

Published

Author(s)

Mark W. Keller

Abstract

Fundamental standards of current and capacitance based on the transfer of electrons one-by-one are described. The current status of several schemes for realizing such standards is reviewed. The impact of these standards on metrology and fundamental constants is discussed.
