The phrase "a voltage stimulus" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to electrical engineering, biology, or neuroscience when discussing the application of voltage to elicit a response or effect.
Example: "The experiment involved applying a voltage stimulus to the nerve cells to observe their reaction."
Alternatives: "an electrical stimulus" or "a voltage input".
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.01289.020 Despite intense experimental scrutiny for almost 25 years, the molecular and atomic origin(s) of the ability of Kv channels to enter a non-conducting conformation in the presence of a sustained (voltage) stimulus has remained enigmatic.
Many Kv channels undergo a progressive loss of ion conductance in the presence of a prolonged voltage stimulus, termed slow inactivation, but the atomic determinants that regulate the kinetics of this process remain obscure.
An ongoing challenge is to elucidate how these proteins precisely time the entry into the slow inactivated state in the presence of a sustained voltage stimulus.

In the upper plots of a, b, and c, the voltage stimulus (blue) and the corresponding change in the normalized state variable w/D (red) is plotted against time.
(A ) Example of paired recording using 'autaptic' voltage stimulus, showing that brief depolarization can evoke transmission in pairs of neurons.
The plate shape functions were solved analytically using classic plate theory in conjunction with the external boundary conditions and the internal ones between the two regions in order to calculate the exact plate displacement under both external voltage stimulus and acoustic pressure.
Generally, a memristor is composed of a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) cell, where the NVM effect comes from their ability of reversible resistive switching (RS) between low-resistance state (LRS or RON) and high-resistance state (HRS or ROFF) under voltage stimulus.
(B ) Top: example current recordings of Pcdhg (left) and Pcdhg SACs in response to autaptic voltage stimulus.
A high-voltage stimulus isolator (World Precision Instruments, Sarasota, Florida, product # A360D or A365D) was used to stimulate the bimorph.
