title: Critical disorder and phase transitions in random diode arrays.
abstract: Random diode arrays represent a new class of nonlinear disordered systems related to the physics of thin-film semiconductor structures and some others. When a disorder strength grows through a certain critical value, they undergo a phase transition from almost uniform to strongly nonuniform random electric potential. A piecewise continuous topography of random potential is predicted.
