Giant nonvolatile resistive switching in a Mott oxide and ferroelectric hybrid.

ABSTRACT: Controlling the electronic properties of oxides that feature a metal-insulator transition (MIT) is a key requirement for developing a new class of electronics often referred to as "Mottronics." A simple, controllable method to switch the MIT properties in real time is needed for practical applications. Here we report a giant, nonvolatile resistive switching (ΔR/R > 1,000%) and strong modulation of the MIT temperature (ΔT_c > 30 K) in a voltage-actuated V₂O₃/PMN-PT [Pb(Mg,Nb)O₃-PbTiO₃] heterostructure. This resistive switching is an order of magnitude larger than ever encountered in any other similar systems. The control of the V₂O₃ electronic properties is achieved using the transfer of switchable ferroelastic stra
