14. 1c The probability of the ribbons being perpendicular to the tip axis is low; in most cases the ribbons are oriented at an arbitrary angle with respect to the tip axis, so that a sizable dipole-field component exists along it. This induces the rectification, with typical rectification ratio of the order of 3.

20. The lack of saturation in the drain-source current makes the output current quite sensitive to small changes in the drain-source voltage and gives rise to the issues of stability against drift. If the operation conditions are changed, a decrease of both output resistance and gain can be generated.
