Colossal flexoresistance in dielectrics

Manipulating the electric state of large band gap dielectrics without any damage is quite challenging. Here, the authors demonstrate by mechanically introducing strain gradients that large electric fields are generated via flexoelectric interactions, resulting in a reversible Zener breakdown in SrTi...
