Title :
Control of negative-resistance characteristics in the tunnel-diode-transistor hybrid couple
Abstract :
A new type of tunnel-diode-transistor hybrid couple is presented in which the negative-resistance characteristic of the the tunnel diode is controlled by the external circuit. This hybrid couple can be advantageously utilized over the single tunnel-diode circuit in many linear and digital applications.
