Abstract

Negative differential resistance (NDR) was discovered in MX- and MMX-type iodide-bridged platinum complexes for the first time. The low resistance of the complex observed under the large current cannot be explained only by the Joule heat. The intrinsic charge-ordering states are considered to play an important role in the NDR of these compounds.
