Abstract
A sparse-carrier device including a crystal structure ( ) formed of a first material and having a crystallographic facet ( ) with a width (w) and a length and quantum dots ( ) formed of a second material and positioned in at least one row on the crystallographic facet ( ). The at least one row of quantum dots ( ) extends along the length of the crystallographic facet ( ) and is at least one quantum dot ( ) wide (w) and a plurality of quantum dots long. The number of quantum dot rows determined by the width (w) of the crystallographic facet ( ). The row of quantum dots ( ) form a building block for circuits based on sparse or single electron devices.
