Controlling dual Mott states by hydrogen doping to perovskite rare-earth nickelates

Matsuzawa, Ikuya*; Fukutani, Katsuyuki; 5 of others*

Doping hydrogen in correlated oxides is a promising way to control the materials functionalities. With in situ measurements of the resistance and hydrogen concentration by a nuclear reaction analysis, we have derived the detailed relation between the resistance and hydrogen concentration ($$x$$) for $$R$$NiO$$_{3}$$H$$_{x}$$ ($$R$$ = Sm, Nd, and La), which reveal a clear resistance jump at a certain concentration. Taking account of the spatial distribution of hydrogen in both in-plane and depth directions, we have clarified that an insulating state is realized at $$x = 0.5$$ and another insulating state is formed at $$x = 1$$. The electronic mechanisms for the two states are proposed in terms of Mott phases.
