Negative Differential Resistance (NDR) is a phenomenon where an increase in voltage across a device results in a decrease in current. This effect is crucial in various technologies, particularly in oscillators and amplifiers. The discussion references a detailed article from the Calgary Herald and a Wikipedia entry that elaborates on the implications of NDR in electronic components. Understanding NDR is essential for engineers and researchers working with advanced electronic systems.
