V. Ziegler et al., On the propagation of nonlinear solitary waves in a distributed Schottky barrier diode transmission line, CHAOS SOL F, 12(9), 2001, pp. 1719-1728
A nonlinear distributed Schottky barrier diode is analyzed and it is found
to be similar to a 3-component quasi-neutral plasma consisting of negative
ions and electrons that are neutralized with positive ions. In such a plasm
a, it has been shown that both KdV and mKdV solitons can exist. We obtain t
he criteria for the distributed Schottky barrier diode that will permit the
propagation of both KdV and mKdV solitary waves. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science
