Abstract

We develop a quantum current standard based on the hybrid superconductor-insulator-normal-metal- insulator-superconductor (SINIS) structure in turnstile operation. We discuss the properties of the device and the relevant error sources. We also present a preliminary plan how to implement the device in a direct quantum metrological triangle experiment.
