What do you call V/I of a "non-Ohmic" material?

Usually you don't say much about that at all.

Usually dV / dI is much more useful...
It's called the small-signal resistance.

In such a situation V would be called the
operating-point voltage, and I would be
called the operating-point current. The
ratio of the two just isn't very interesting.
