Abstract
Colossal electroresistance and current induced resistivity switching have been measured in the ferromagnetic insulating (FMI) state of single crystal manganite La0.82Ca0.18MnO3. The sample has a Curie transition temperature TC=165K and the FMI state is realized for temperatures T<100K. The electroresistance (ER), arising from a strong nonlinear resistivity, attains a large value (≈100%) in the FMI state. However, this is accompanied by a collapse of the magnetoresistance (MR) to a small value even in magnetic field (H) of 10T. This demonstrates that the mechanisms that give rise to ER and MR are effectively decoupled.
