title: Experimental observation of stochastic resonance in a linear electronic array.
abstract: We report the experimental observation of array-enhanced stochastic resonance, spatiotemporal synchronization, and noise-enhanced propagation in a simple coupled linear array of bistable electronic triggers. In addition, we highlight an analogy between charge density wave (CDW) like conductivity and spatiotemporal synchronization in stochastic resonances, several aspects of which are supported by the experimental evidence presented here. This may prove to be important in the understanding of nonlinear conductivity in CDW solids.
