30 Nov 2015 | Abstract: | We study conductance of a single electron transistor (SET) with a
ferroelectric (or dielectric) layer placed in the gate capacitor. We assume
that ferroelectric (FE) has a retarded response with arbitrary relaxation time.
We show that in the case of "fast" but still retarded response of the FE
(dielectric) layer an additional contribution to the Coulomb blockade effect
appears leading to the suppression of the SET conductance. We take into account
fluctuations of the FE (dielectric) polarization using Monte-Carlo simulations.
For "fast" FE these fluctuations partially suppress the additional Coulomb
blockade effect. Using Monte-Carlo simulations we study the transition from
"fast" to "slow" FE. For high temperatures the peak value of the SET
conductance is almost independent of the FE relaxation time. For temperatures
close to the FE Curie temperature the conductance peak value non-monotonically
depends on the FE relaxation time. A maximum appears when the FE relaxation
time is of the order of the SET discharging time. Below the Curie point the
conductance peak value decreases with increasing the FE relaxation time. The
conductance shows the hysteresis behavior for any FE relaxation time at
temperatures below the FE transition point. We show that conductance hysteresis
is robust against FE internal fluctuations. | Source: | arXiv, 1512.0062 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
