Revealing the role of lattice distortions in the hydrogen-induced metal-insulator transition of SmNiO3

Proton doping can induce metal-insulator transitions in rare-earth nickelates, demonstrating the complex interplay between dopants and electronic degrees of freedom. Chen et al. use results on strained films to argue that local proton-induced lattice distortions strongly influence the transition.
