Single-electron sources - Terminology, metrics, and characterization methods cen:proj:83208

Scope

This document defines a set of metrics and a common terminology for single-electron sources taking into account different realization schemes. Based on this foundation, the main parameters of interest are specified and experimental procedures for measuring these parameters are identified. Characterization methods, including the minimal requirements for the reporting of the experimental setup, the operation conditions, and the data analysis are given.
