Single-electron tunneling (SET) and related phenomena have recently
come to be considered as "hot topics." This also became apparent
when we organized the 4th International Conference on
Superconducting and Quantum Effect Devices and Their Applications,
SQUID'91, which was held June 18-21, 1991, in Berlin, Germany.
Impressed by the number of contributions dedicated to the new
physics of ultrasmall devices, we deemed it appropriate to devote
this volume of the Springer Series in Electronics and Photonics to
these specialized proceedings. The other contributions presented at
SQUID'91, which are more conventional in character but nevertheless
contain excitingly innovative results, are published separately as
Volume 64 of the series Springer Proceedings in Physics. At first
glance it seems strange that a conference abbreviated SQUID'91
should attract so many papers on non-superconducting devices, and
in fact the first SQUID'XX conferences dealt exclusively with the
physics and technology of Josephson junctions, SQUIDs and other
superconducting devices and their ap plications. However, many
concepts developed for superconducting devices, like tunneling,
flux quantization, and flux-charge conjugation, appeared to be
suitable for ultrasmall non-superconducting structures as well, and
many researchers in the field of superconducting devices extended
their activities accordingly. Thus the extension of the conference
programme evolved quite informally. Meanwhile, the meetings
established themselves as well-known conference series tradition
ally appreciated by the SQUID community for its balanced mixture of
physics and technology, review and preview. SQUID'XX became a kind
of a trademark."

After a foreword by Klaus von Klitzing, the first chapters of this
book discuss the prehistory and the theoretical basis as well as
the implications of the discovery of the Quantum Hall effect on
superconductivity, superfluidity, and metrology, including
experimentation. The second half of this volume is concerned with
the theory of and experiments on the many body problem posed by
fractional effect. Specific unsolved problems are mentioned
throughout the book and a summary is made in the final chapter. The
quantum Hall effect was discovered on about the hundredth
anniversary of Hall's original work, and the finding was announced
in 1980 by von Klitzing, Dorda and Pepper. Klaus von KIitzing was
awarded the 1985 Nobel prize in physics for this discovery.
