  • Abstract
    The multimode oscillator properties of two-dimensional arrays of tunnel diode elements are analyzed in the quasi-harmonic approximation with the assumption of no resonant interaction between the normal modes in order to determine the capacity of an array for information storage. Experimental results for a 4 × 4 array of semiconductor tunnel diodes are discussed, and suggestions for possible future information processing applications are presented.
