Abstract

When repeated identical voltage pulses are applied to a material with a sliding charge-density wave, the current response synchronizes with the end of the applied pulse. We discuss how this observation can be understood using the model of classical deformable charge-density waves. The effect provides insight into unusual behavior that may be typical of many multivariate dynamical systems.
