The electric pulses induced multi-resistance states in the hysteresis temperature range of 1T-TaS2 and 1T-TaS1.6Se0.4

Abstract

The electric pulse-induced responses of 1T-TaS2 and 1T-TaS1.6Se0.4 crystals in the commensurate charge-density-wave (CCDW) phase in the hysteresis temperature range have been investigated. We observed that abrupt multiple steps of the resistance are excited by electric pulses at a fixed temperature forming multi metastable like states. We propose that the response of the system corresponds to the rearrangements of the textures of CCDW domains and the multi-resistance states or the nonvolatile resistance properties excited simply by electric pulses have profound significance for the exploration of solid-state devices.
