Single Electron Tunneling
<electronics> (SET) A New electrical standard for capacitance.
SET devices can be used to construct circuits which process information by
manipulating individual electrons. SET devices are small, dissipate little
power, and can detect exquisitely small quantities of charge. The small size and
low power dissipation of SET circuits makes them potentially useful for the
Information Technology industry.
