Exploring neuronal bistability at the depolarization block. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Many neurons display bistability--coexistence of two firing modes such as bursting and tonic spiking or tonic spiking and silence. Bistability has been proposed to endow neurons with richer forms of information processing in general and to be involved in

Design of dual-material lattice structures with compression-torsion bistability

Materials and Design, 2023
Lattice structures with bistability can maintain additional equilibrium states after external loads are removed. While conventional bistable structures typically realize compression and torsional bistabilities under compression and twisting loads, this ...

Bistable insulin response: The win-win solution for glycemic control

iScience, 2022
Summary: To satisfy both the safety and rapidity of glycemic control, muscles’ insulin response must be bistable, as theoretically predicted. Here, we test the bistability hypothesis by combining cellular experiments (to measure the threshold values in ...

Quantum resonant optical bistability with a narrow atomic transition: bistability phase diagram in the bad cavity regime

New Journal of Physics, 2023
We report on the observation of a novel manifestation of saturation-induced optical bistability in a resonantly pumped optical ring cavity interacting strongly with a cloud of atoms via a narrow atomic transition.

OPTICAL BISTABILITY IN A DEGENERATE TWO-LEVEL EIT MEDIUM UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF AN EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD: AN ANALYTICAL APPROACH

Tạp chí Khoa học Đại học Đà Lạt, 2021
We investigate the behavior of optical bistability in a degenerate two-level atomic medium using an external magnetic field to separate the lower level into two distinct levels that both connect to an upper level by the probe and coupling laser fields ...
