Abstract

An electronic device 1 includes an electrical conductivity changeable body 2 whose electrical conductivity changes according to an electric field and an electric field applying device 3 that applies an electric field to the electrical conductivity changeable body 2. The electrical conductivity changeable body 2 contains RFe2O4, and its electrical conductivity changes due to a state of internal electrons being changed according to an electric field 4 applied from the outside by the electric field applying device 3. Thereby, an electronic device capable of changing its electrical conductivity in accordance with application of a small electric field is realized.
