34 Time-of-flight Measurements (Pulsed Gate Voltage) Channel 10µm wide. 400µm long Transmitted electrons are detected only above a certain pulse width (25µs in this case, for point contacts : in the nanosecond range)
35 Effect of Coulomb Repulsion on the Transit Time Channel: 3.37µm wide 400µm long V sd = 2V For low electron density: transit time is determined by the potential gradient in the Si substrate For high electron density: Coulomb repulsion between the electrons dominates

40 Conclusions Electrons on He are model systems for low-dimensional matter: Electrons on films ( infinite 2D system) phase transition classical fluid crystal can be tuned by film thickness (dipolar contribution) phase transition Wigner crystal degenerate Fermi gas quantum melting (has to be studied in more detail) problem: electron loss into metallic substrates: what is the mechanism? (local instability, tunneling?) Electrons in confined geometry He FET: dc measurements are possible electron energy determined by substrate potential & Coulomb repulsion narrow constrictions: correlation phenomena also in classical transport to be studied: structured channels crossover from classical to qm behavior
