Outline of Final Research Achievements

We researched on the quantum metrology triangle experiment, the determination of the elementary charge of an electron and the development of a tiny-current measurement technique. First superconducting hybrid-single-electron device and the semiconductor single-electron device were investigated. In the superconducting hybrid-single-electron device, we found a new mechanism of transfer error and proposed its solution. On the other hand, in silicon device, we succeeded to generate electric current with 5 ppm uncertainty. Next, we built up a measurement setup in a dilution refrigerator for quantum metrology triangle experiment with quantum Hall resistor, Josephson voltage standard, and single electron device. Finally, for the determination of the elementary charge, we succeeded to perform real-time detection of single electron movement inside a semiconductor double quantum dot system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究で取り組む量子メトロロジートライアングルの研究は、新しい国際単位系における組み立て量間の整合性検証を行うものであり、産業、文化、科学活動にとって欠くことのできない社会基盤の実現に資するものである。また本研究で取り組む単一電子転送を用いた量子化電流発生は、放射線医療、ガス検出、半導体産業などで重要性の増しているfAからpAまで電流計測の信頼性を担保する電流標準の実現に貢献するものである。さらに本研究で対象とする超伝導体、半導体を用いた単一電子素子はそれぞれ逆近接効果や動的に形成される量子ドットといった基礎物理と大きく結びついており、基礎科学的知見の獲得にも貢献するものである。
