Abstract

The application of a magnetic field of 10 kG causes a decrease by more than a factor of 2 in the delay time for switching in iron oxide films. This effect is associated with very short switching time (≲ 20 nsec) and some other characteristic properties. It appears that while initiated thermally, the switching itself is an electric breakdown that follows a buildup of a high electric field.
