Single Flux Transistor: the controllable interplay of Coherent Quantum   Phase Slip and Flux quantization
  The Single Cooper Pair Josephson Transistor is a device that exhibits at the same time charge quantization and phase coherence. Coherent quantum phase slip phenomenon is "dual" the Josephson phase coherence while the charge quantization is dual to the flux quantization. We present the experimental demonstration and the theoretical description of a new superconducting device - Single Flux Transistor, which is dual to the Single Cooper Pair Transistor. Our transport measurements show the periodic modulation of the critical voltage by the external magnetic field. The obtained current-voltage characteristics show the hysteretic behavior, which we attribute to the intrinsic self-heating of charge carriers.
