Colossal magnetoresistance in a Mott insulator via magnetic field-driven insulator-metal transition
Physical review letters, 2016•APS
We present a new type of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) arising from an anomalous
collapse of the Mott insulating state via a modest magnetic field in a bilayer ruthenate, Ti-
doped Ca 3 Ru 2 O 7. Such an insulator-metal transition is accompanied by changes in both
lattice and magnetic structures. Our findings have important implications because a
magnetic field usually stabilizes the insulating ground state in a Mott-Hubbard system, thus
calling for a deeper theoretical study to reexamine the magnetic field tuning of Mott systems …

We present a new type of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) arising from an anomalous collapse of the Mott insulating state via a modest magnetic field in a bilayer ruthenate, Ti-doped . Such an insulator-metal transition is accompanied by changes in both lattice and magnetic structures. Our findings have important implications because a magnetic field usually stabilizes the insulating ground state in a Mott-Hubbard system, thus calling for a deeper theoretical study to reexamine the magnetic field tuning of Mott systems with magnetic and electronic instabilities and spin-lattice-charge coupling. This study further provides a model approach to search for CMR systems other than manganites, such as Mott insulators in the vicinity of the boundary between competing phases.
