However it is known that in the absence of a magnetic field the zero resistance state (zero differential resistance state) is achieved in a system with the S-shape $CVC$. The difference in the behaviour of systems with N- and S-shape $CVC$ was studied more than three decades ago (see for example the review [9] and references therein) and is briefly explained in this Comment. At present it is not clear whether the N-shape $CVC$ may lead to the zero resistance state in a 2DEG in a magnetic field.replaced with revised versionMesoscale and Nanoscale Physicstext
