electronics (SET) A New electrical standard for capacitance.
SET devices can be used to construct circuits which process
information by manipulating individual electrons. SET devices
are small, dissipate little power, and can detect exquisitely
small quantities of charge. The small size and low power
dissipation of SET circuits makes them potentially useful for
