Low-temperature dielectric anomaly arising from electronic phase separation at the Mott insulator-metal transition
Abstract Coulomb repulsion among conduction electrons in solids hinders their motion and leads to a rise in resistivity. A regime of electronic phase separation is expected at the first-order phase transition between a correlated metal and a paramagnetic Mott insulator, but remains unexplored experi...
