It is observed that the resistance transition voltage Vt shifts reproducibly under a reversed large current. By applying a reading voltage in the range of Vt, non-volatile resistive switching phenomena with an endurance of more than 80 cycles are observed. Moreover, it is also found that the magnetic field could shift Vt to higher values, yielding a voltage dependent room-temperature magnetoresistance in the range of 10^3 % at 1 T.
