Abstract :
A multivibrator operation based on the plasma-coupled concept is described. A triggering voltage applied to an ohmic gate located between two negative resistance elements switches the "on" state from one element to the other. Astable, monostable, and bistable multivibrator operations have been achieved by varying several circuit parameters.
