| Research Abstract |
The signal detection ability sometimes enhances by the addition of noise, which is called stochastic resonance (SR). In this research, we succeeded in enhancement of the ability of signal transfer by the addition of noise using non-linear response of VO_2 thin films. In addition, the SR behavior in the experimental results corresponded with the simulated SR behavior with multiple parallel units. This suggests that effective multiple channels should naturally exist in a VO_2 thin film. This achievement has fully potential to novel information processers using noise as bio-systems.
