We explore phonon-mediated quantum transport through electronic noise characterization of a commercial CMOS transistor. The device behaves as a single electron transistor thanks to a single impurity atom in the channel. A low noise cryogenic CMOS transimpedance amplifier is exploited to perform low-frequency noise characterization down to the single electron, single donor and single phonon regime simultaneously, not otherwise visible through standard stability diagrams. Single electron tunneling as well as phonon-mediated features emerges in rms-noise measurements. Phonons are emitted at high frequency by generation-recombination phenomena by the impurity atom. The phonon decay is correlated to a Lorentzian $1/f^2$ noise at low frequency.

We report on the fabrication and electrical characterization at millikelvin temperatures of a novel silicon single-electron transistor (Si-SET). The island and source-drain leads of the Si-SET are formed by the implantation of phosphorus ions to a de nsity above the metal-insulator-transition, with the tunnel junctions created by undoped regions. Surface gates above each of the tunnel junctions independently control the tunnel coupling between the Si-SET island and leads. The device shows periodic Coulomb blockade with a charging energy e$^2$/2C$_Sigma$ $sim$ 250 $mu$eV, and demonstrates a reproducible and controllable pathway to a silicon-based SET using CMOS processing techniques.
We investigate a hybrid structure consisting of $20pm4$ implanted $^{31}$P atoms close to a gate-induced silicon single electron transistor (SiSET). In this configuration, the SiSET is extremely sensitive to the charge state of the nearby centers, tu rning from the off state to the conducting state when the charge configuration is changed. We present a method to measure fast electron tunnel rates between donors and the SiSET island, using a pulsed voltage scheme and low-bandwidth current detection. The experimental findings are quantitatively discussed using a rate equation model, enabling the extraction of the capture and emission rates.

We have directly measured the quantum noise of a superconducting single-electron transistor (S-SET) embedded in a microwave resonator consisting of a superconducting LC tank circuit. Using an effective bath description, we find that the S-SET provide s damping of the resonator modes proportional to its differential conductance and has an effective temperature that depends strongly on the S-SET bias conditions. In the vicinity of a double Cooper pair resonance, when both resonances are red detuned the S-SET effective temperature can be well below both the ambient temperature and the energy scale of the bias voltage. When blue detuned, the S-SET shows negative differential conductivity,
Temperature is a fundamental parameter in the study of physical phenomena. At the nanoscale, local temperature differences can be harnessed to design novel thermal nanoelectronic devices or test quantum thermodynamical concepts. Determining temperatu re locally is hence of particular relevance. Here, we present a primary electron thermometer that allows probing the local temperature of a single electron reservoir in single-electron devices. The thermometer is based on cyclic electron tunneling between a system with discrete energy levels and a single electron reservoir. When driven at a finite rate, close to a charge degeneracy point, the system behaves like a variable capacitor whose magnitude and line-shape varies with temperature. In this experiment, we demonstrate this type of thermometer using a quantum dot in a CMOS nanowire transistor. We drive cyclic electron tunneling by embedding the device in a radio-frequency resonator which in turn allows us to read the thermometer dispersively. We find that the full width at half maximum of the resonator phase response depends linearly with temperature via well known physical law by using the ratio $k_text{B}/e$ between the Boltzmann constant and the electron charge. Overall, the thermometer shows potential for local probing of fast heat dynamics in nanoelectronic devices and for seamless integration with silicon-based quantum circuits.
We examine a silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) for cryogenic pre-amplification of a single electron transistor (SET). The SET current modulates the base current of the HBT directly. The HBT-SET circuit is immersed in liquid he lium, and its frequency response from low frequency to several MHz is measured. The current gain and the noise spectrum with the HBT result in a signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) that is a factor of 10-100 larger than without the HBT at lower frequencies. The transition frequency defined by SNR = 1 has been extended by as much as a factor of 10 compared to without the HBT amplification. The power dissipated by the HBT cryogenic pre-amplifier is approximately 5 nW to 5 {mu}W for the investigated range of operation. The circuit is also operated in a single electron charge read-out configuration in the time-domain as a proof-of-principle demonstration of the amplification approach for single spin read-out.
