  • The authors report methods of fabrication singlelayer color cholesteric liquid crystal displays (CLCDs). A single-layer CLCD has been prepared from a polymerstabilized cholesteric liquid crystal. The unique feature of the polymer stabilization is in that the electrically switched colors preserve high reflectivity. A bistable single-layer CLCD has been prepared by the formation of polymer barrier walls and light-tuned cholesteric pitches to reflect blue, green and red color sub-pixels.

  • We observe experimentally self-pulsing, subharmonic generation, spectral bistability, and chaos in a stable laser diode with delayed optoelectronic feed-back. The laser diode emits 200 ps optical pulses with 1.1 GHz repetition rate in the self-pulsing region. The bistable region critically depends on the closed loop gain of the system. We also explain observed experimental result.

  • A non-volatile resistive random access memory (RRAM) device with a Cr-doped $SrZrO_3/SrRuO_3$ bottom electrode heterostructure was fabricated on $SrTiO_3$ substrates using pulsed laser deposition. During the deposition process, the substrate temperature was $650^{\circ}C$ and the variable ambient oxygen pressure had a range of 50-250 mTorr. The sensitive dependences of the film structure on the processing oxygen pressure are important in controlling the bistable resistive switching of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ film. Therefore, oxygen pressure plays a crucial role in determining electrical properties and film growth characteristics such as various microstructural defects and crystallization. Inside, the microstructure and crystallinity of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ film by oxygen pressure were strong effects on the set, reset switching voltage of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$. The bistable switching is related to the defects and controls their number and structure. Therefore, the relation of defects generated and resistive switching behavior by oxygen pressure change will be discussed. We found that deposition conditions and ambient oxygen pressure highly affect the switching behavior. It is suggested that the interface between the top electrode and Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ perovskite plays an important role in the resistive switching behavior. From I-V characteristics, a typical ON state resistance of $100-200\;{\Omega}$ and a typical OFF state resistance of $1-2\;k{\Omega}$, were observed. These transition metal-doped perovskite thin films can be used for memory device applications due to their high ON/OFF ratio, simple device structure, and non-volatility.

  • For genetic algorithms, the population may get stuck in a local optimum. The population can escape from this after a long duration. This phenomenon is called punctuated equilibrium. The punctuated equilibria observed in nature and computational ecosystems are known to be well described by diffusion equations. In this paper, simple genetic algorithms are theoretically analyzed to show that they can also be described by a diffusion equation. When fitness is the function of unitation, this analysis can be further refined to make the parameters of genetic algorithms appear in this equation. Using theoretical results on the diffusion equation, the duration of equilibrium is shown to be exponential of such parameters as population size, 1/(mutation probability), and potential barrier. This is corroborated by simulation results for bistable potential landscapes with one local optimum and one global optimum.

  • V-I characteristics of Fe(100)/MgO(100)/Cu-phthalocyanine (CuPc)/Co hybrid magnetic tunnel junctions were investigated at different temperatures. Fe(100) and Co ferromagnetic layers were separated by an organic-inorganic hybrid barrier consisting of different thickness of CuPc thin film grown on a 2 nm thick epitaxial MgO(100) layer. As the CuPc thickness increases from 0 to 10 nm, a bistable switching behavior due to strong charging effects was observed, while a very large magenetoresistance was shown at 77 K for the junctions without the CuPc barrier. This switching behavior decreases with the increase in temperature, and finally disappears beyond 240 K. In this work, high-potential future applications of the MgO(100)/CuPc bilayer were discussed for hybrid spintronic devices as well as polymer random access memories (PoRAMs).

  • In this paper, we propose a new nonvolatile unit memory cell and proposal peripheral circuit using the polymer material. Memory that relies on bistable behavior- having tow states associated with different resistances at the same applied voltage - has attracted much interest because of its nonvolatile properties. Such memory may also have other merits, including simplicity of structure and manufacturing, and the small size of memory cells. We have plotted the load line graphs for the use of a polymer memory character, hence we have designed in the band-gap reference shape of a write/erase drive, and then designed in the 2-stage differential amplifier shape of a sense amplifier in the consideration of a low current characteristic of a polymer memory cell. The simulation result shows that is has high gain about 80dB by sensing the very small current.

  • Two-dimensional numerical simulations are conducted at a low Reynolds number Re = 100 to investigate the near wake of three identical circular cylinders that are arranged in an equilateral triangular configuration. The incident angle of the three-cylinder configuration with respect to incoming flow is varied from θ = 0° to 60°, while the spacing between adjacent cylinders (L) covers a wide range of L/D = 1.25-7.0, where D is diameter of the cylinder. Typical flow structures in the near wake of the three-cylinder configuration are identified, including a single Karman vortex street, bistable flip-flopping near wake, anti-phase and/or in-phase vortex shedding, shear layer reattachment, and vortex impingement, depending on the configuration (L/D, θ). The behavior of Strouhal number (St) is discussed in detail, echoing the distinct structures of near wake. Furthermore, fluid forces on the individual cylinders are examined, which, though highly depending on (L/D, θ), exhibit a close correlation to the near wake behavior.

  • The operation behaviors of negative-resistance multivibrators. are described. The oscillation phenomena in monostable and bistable mode negative-resistance circuits are analyzed by using a analog computer. It is presented that voltage-controlled negative -resistance switching circuits may be in oscillation state for a time or parmanently by adding the bias voltage or trigger pulse. The results show that the care must be taken for this fact in the constructions of negative resistance switching circuits.
