19. c is not a straight cutoff when dealing with the temperature, but should rather be seen as a decay length.
20. Note that neither the resistance nor the differential resistance are really constant at V > 10 μV. Figure 4 gives this impression due to the much smaller voltage range compared to Fig. 1.
