angular-js: Multiple instances of controller being created in ui-router

I have noticed that, whenever a $state.go() is applied to a state with parameter(s) in AngularJS UI-Router, a new instance of the HTML content [for that view] is created each time. Not only the HTML content, but also the controller are being created as many times as newer params are appearing on the $stateParams after calling $state.go() in the program later on.

How do I stop new instances of HTML content and controller to stop appearing, while still passing the params to the $stateParams? I want to use the same controller, same scope and same HTML content for any data that $stateParams holds. Thank you very much in advance!

YES, it is possible. Disable caching.

This is done in various ways. One of the ways would be to be disable caching while defining the states. Eg:

$stateProvider.state("home",
    {
        url:'/home',
        cache:false,
    }

Adapted from ui.router not reloading controller
