Controlling friction in a manganite surface by resistive switching

Hendrik Schmidt, Jon-Olaf Krisponeit, Konrad Samwer +1

We report a significant change in friction of a $\mathrm{L}{\mathrm{a}}_{0.55}\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{a}}_{0.45}\mathrm{Mn}{\mathrm{O}}_3$ thin film measured as a function of the materials resistive state under ultrahigh vacuum conditions at…
