INSULATOR UNDERGOING ABRUPT METAL-INSULATOR TRANSITION, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE INSULATOR, AND DEVICE USING THE INSULATOR

摘要

Provided are an insulator that has an energy band gap of 2 eV or more and undergoes an abrupt MIT without undergoing a structural change, a method of manufacturing the insulator, and a device using the insulator. The insulator is abruptly transitioned from an insulator phase into a metal phase by an energy change between electrons without undergoing a structural change.
