Switching of Current Rectification Ratios within a Single Nanocrystal by Facet-Resolved Electrical Wiring

Here we show that within a single polyhedral metal oxide nanoparticle a nanometer-scale lateral or vertical sliding of a small metal top contact (e.g., <50 nm) leads to a 10-fold change in current rectification ratios. Electron tunnelling imaging and constant-force current-potential analysis...
