Comparing the output noise with gain for a large number of bias points, it is found that the noise is dominated by external charge noise. For low gains we find an additional noise contribution which is compared to a model including resistance fluctuations. We conclude that this excess noise is not only due to resistance fluctuations. For one sample, we find a record low minimum charge noise of qn = 9*10^-6 e/sqrt(Hz) in the superconducting state and qn = 9*10^-6 e/sqrt(Hz) in the normal state at a frequency of 4.4 kHz.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-06-29T10:29:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "single electron transistor", "gain dependence", "record low minimum charge noise", "resistance fluctuations", "external charge noise" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
