The exploitation of a purely electronic phase change such as the Mott transition could lead to the ultimate electronic device. C. Vaju et al. demonstrates electric‐pulse control of the Mott transition in a sulfide (see figure). In this highlight, this breakthrough is reviewed with a brief tutorial of the Mott transition. The future of electronics with the strongly correlated electron systems is envisioned.
