Claim 16:
17. A method, comprising:
applying a first voltage between a first contact and a second contact, the first voltage being within a first range of voltages, the first contact and the second contact positioned at opposite ends of a channel layer, wherein responsive to the first range of voltages being applied between the first contact and the second contact, the channel layer exhibits a linear current-voltage relationship; and
applying a second voltage between the first contact and the second contact, the second voltage being within a second range of voltages, the second range of voltages non-overlapping with the first range of voltages, and wherein responsive to the second range of voltages being applied between the first contact and the second contact, the channel layer exhibits a nonlinear current-voltage relationship.
