Proposal for a nanoscale variable resistor/electromechanical transistor
J. Bürki, C. A. Stafford, D. L. Stein
A nanoscale variable resistor consisting of a metal nanowire (active element), a dielectric, and a gate, is proposed. By means of the gate voltage, stochastic transitions between d…

The Order of Phase Transitions in Barrier Crossing
J. Bürki, C. A. Stafford, D. L. Stein
A spatially extended classical system with metastable states subject to weak spatiotemporal noise can exhibit a transition in its activation behavior when one or more external para…
