This specification discloses a pulse-generating device including elements exhibiting bistable voltage vs. current characteristics, wherein said elements are connected in series with each other and with a variable power source, and a load is connected between the junction of said elements and an intermediate voltage portion of said variable voltage source. In this device, sharp electric pulses can be applied between the opposite ends of the load by changing the voltage of said variable voltage source. By utilizing the principle of the present pulse generating device, it is possible to obtain a variety of novel solid-state devices such as light spot-scanning device, pickup device, luminescent indicator device and so forth.
