Single Electron Tunneling Technology
     
         A {neural network} hardware concept based on
        {single electron tunneling}.  {Single electron tunneling
        transistors} have some properties which make them attractive
        for neural networks, among which their small size, low power
        consumption and potentially high speed.
     
        Simulations have been performed on some small circuits of SET
        transistors that exhibit functional properties similar to
        those required for neural networks.
