Abstract

We study the resistive switching triggered by an applied electrical bias in antiferromagnetic Mott insulator Sr(3)Ir(2)O(7). The switching was previously associated with an electric-field driven structural transition. Here we use time-resolved measurements of the switching to probe the energy barrier associated with the transition. We quantify the changes in the energy barrier height with respect to the applied bias and find a linear decrease of the barrier with increasing bias. Our observations support the potential of antiferromagnetic transition metal oxides for spintronic applications.
