  "abstract": "Low temperature electron transport measurements of single electron transistors fabricated in advanced CMOS technology with polysilicon gates not only exhibit clear Coulomb blockade behavior but also show a large number of additional conductance fluctuations in the nonlinear regime. By comparison with simulations these features are quantitatively attributed to the effects of discretely charged islands in the polysilicon gates.",
