Abstract
The content of this chapter is closely linked with the theme treated in Chap. 5. Here we also discuss active lattice systems composed of elements with bistable properties. However, the geometrical architecture of the systems to be used is more sophisticated. We consider here a multilayer lattice architecture, with interacting lattices or layers and hence a 3D geometry or anatomy. Many systems from various areas of science and technology have such multilayer 3D structure. Take, for instance Josephson superlattices consisting of many stacked tunnel junctions, artificial reaction-diffusion dynamical systems using molecular electronics technology, neural networks, layered porous media, Cellular Neural Networks and so on [6.1–5,6.10–16,6.22–24,6.26,6.27]. In spite of significant differences between all these cases we may expect some common hence universal properties associated with the multilayer geometry. The purpose of this chapter is to identify and describe such properties.
