Here is something shared by Rod Fredlund that is different with regard
to the negative resistance effect, note in the attached picture that the
carbon fibers are perpendicular and not in some special angle, that is,
they are a straight 90 degrees...as in current to voltage..
It also has her phone number!! I'm hoping Tom Bearden will give her a
call as I think he might be able to shed some light on this phenomenon
of negative resistance.

Hi Jerry,
I don't know if you've seen it or not, but here's a short
bit Wired did on her in their latest (August) issue with
an attached JPG file. There are no negative resistance
claims but it is the first picture I've seen.

Smart walls
If Thomas Edison is the father of electricity, then
Deborah Chung, a professor of mechanical and aerospace
engineering at the State University of New York at Buffalo,
is the mother of structural electronics. As you might expect,
the technology embeds electronic properties into materials
so that surfaces will be able to store electricity and
will have the intelligence to measure and control climate.
Chung's team has built several prototypes.
The breakthrough-within-a-breakthrough: Material - carbon
fibers bound by an epoxy matrix - that acts as a metal
and a semiconductor. Less expensive, less fragile, and
easier to produce than silicon circuitry, structural
electronics will allow walls to store energy and act as
control circuitry.
The carbon fibers can also be used to create smart concrete
that will sense and report structural damage.
