Separating electric field and thermal effects across the metal-insulator transition in vanadium oxide nanobeams

We present results from an experimental study of the equilibrium and non-equilibrium transport properties of vanadium oxide nanobeams near the metal-insulator transition (MIT). Application of a large electric field in the insulating phase across the nanobeams produces an abrupt MIT, and the individu...
