Carbon doped some transition metal oxide thin films such as hafnium dioxide shows a non-polar metal-insulator switching phenomenon, which is thought to be due to the Mott transition, occurs when a voltage is applied. A strongly correlated electron random access memory (CeRAM) has been proposed as a resistive memory that utilizes this phenomenon. In this paper, we report the fabrication of carbon-doped zirconia (ZrOx) thin films by the mist CVD method, which allows film deposition under atmospheric pressure, and the confirmation of the non-polar metal-insulator switching phenomenon for the first time.
