Abstract :
The current-voltage dependence corresponding to electronic transport through a kink in an electronic waveguide is analyzed. No phase breaking dissipation mechanisms are considered, but the effects of the Coulomb interaction are included through a self consistent approximation. The results indicate very nonlinear transport properties, including negative differential resistance and bistability
