Thermal effects due to applied voltages.

The heat is generated due to applied voltages and both on and off conditions are shown. The current (dotted lines) sharply rises with the applied voltages when switched on and suddenly falls off to zero when switched off. The samples cool down exponentially after the voltage is turned off. The inset shows the rise and fall of temperature with time for various film thicknesses for both on and off voltage cases.
