World's First Single-Electron Transistor Works Like a Teeny, Tiny Etch-A-Sketch [Quantum Computing]

It's amazing what an electron can do. Researchers, lead by a team from the University of Pittsburg, have built the world's first operational single-electron transistor, the SketchSET, which could become an essential component of all sorts of futuristic technologies; from super-dense, high-capacity solid-state drives to quantum processors.
