Interfaces of correlated electron systems: proposed mechanism for colossal electroresistance.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mott's metal-insulator transition at an interface due to band bending is studied by the density matrix renormalization group approach. We show that the result can be recovered by a simple modification of the conventional Poisson's equation approach used in semiconductor heterojunctions. A novel mechanism of colossal electroresistance is proposed, which incorporates the hysteretic behavior of the transition in higher dimensions.

Abnormal percolative transport and colossal electroresistance induced by anisotropic strain in (011)-Pr0.7(Ca0.6Sr0.4)0.3MnO3/PMN-PT heterostructure
Abnormal percolative transport in inhomogeneous systems has drawn increasing interests due to its deviation from the conventional percolation picture. However, its nature is still ambiguous partly due to the difficulty in obtaining controllable abnormal percolative transport behaviors. Here, we report the first observation of electric-field-controlled abnormal percolative transport in (011)-Pr(...
متن کاملColossal electroresistance in ferromagnetic insulating state of single crystal
Colossal electroresistance (CER) has been observed in the ferromagnetic insulating (FMI) state of a manganite. Notably, the CER in the FMI state occurs in the absence of magnetoresistance (MR). Measurements of electroresistance (ER) and current induced resistivity switching have been performed in the ferromagnetic insulating state of a single crystal manganite of composition Nd0.7Pb0.3MnO3 (NPM...
متن کاملSynchrotron Radiation Spectroscopy on Strongly Correlated Electron Systems
Solids with strong electron–electron interaction, namely strongly correlated electron systems (SCES), have various physical properties, such as non-BCS superconducting, colossal magneto-resistance, heavy fermion and so on, which cannot be predicted by first-principle band structure calculation. Due to the physical properties, the materials are the candidates of the next generation functional ma...
متن کاملTunneling electroresistance induced by interfacial phase transitions in ultrathin oxide heterostructures.
The ferroelectric (FE) control of electronic transport is one of the emerging technologies in oxide heterostructures. Many previous studies in FE tunnel junctions (FTJs) exploited solely the differences in the electrostatic potential across the FTJs that are induced by changes in the FE polarization direction. Here, we show that in practice the junction current ratios between the two polarizati...
متن کاملNew correlated model of colossal magnetoresistive manganese oxides.
A new minimal model is constructed for the doped manganese oxides which exhibit colossal magnetoresistance, involving a broad spin-majority conduction band as well as nearly localized spin-minority electron states. A simple mean-field analysis yields a temperature-dependent hybridized band structure with suppressed carrier weight at the Fermi level. Spin stiffness is complex, indicating strong ...
