Whilst electron correlations were previously recognized to trigger beyond conventional direct current (DC) electronic transportations (e.g. metal-to-insulator transitions, bad metal, thermistors), their respective influences to the alternation current (AC) transport are largely overlooked. Herein, we demonstrate active regulations in the electronic functionalities of d-band correlated rare-earth nickelate (ReNiO3) thin films, by simply utilizing their electronic responses to AC-frequencies (fAC). Assisted by temperature dependent near edge X-ray absorption fine structure analysis, we discovered positive temperature dependences in Coulomb viscosity of ReNiO3 that moderates their AC impedance. Distinguished crosslinking among R(Real)-fAC measured in nearby temperatures is observed that differs to conventional oxides. It enables active adjustability in correlated transports of ReNiO3, among NTCR-, TDelta- and PTCR- thermistors, via fAC from the electronic perspective without varying materials or device structures. The TDelta-fAC relationship can be further widely adjusted via Re composition and interfacial strains. The AC-frequency sensitivity discovered in ReNiO3 brings in a new freedom to regulating and switching the device working states beyond the present semiconductor technologies. It opens a new paradigm for enriching novel electronic applications catering automatic transmission or artificial intelligence in sensing temperatures and frequencies.
