It has been shown that negative differential resistance observed at high current density in these compounds is related to Joule heating. However, bi-level and multi-level resistivity switching induced by variations in pulse width and pulse period at low current density can not be attributable to Joule heating alone. We discuss possible origins.20 pages, 5 figureMaterials Sciencetext
