We have synthesized nanosized La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 by a simple low-cost novel synthesis route without calcination at high temperature. The study of these nanoparticles indicates excellent properties similar to colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) materials sintered at ∼1600°C for 20 h. The resulting particle size is in the range of 50–160 nm as determined by scanning electron microscopy. Resistivity measurement has been carried out down to 12 K. The sample shows metal-to-insulator (M–I) transition at 205 K.   相似文献

The optical, magnetooptical (Kerr effect and magnetotransmission), and magnetotransport properties of La2/3Ca1/3MnO3/La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 and La2/3Ca1/3MnO3/SrTiO3/La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 heterostructures on SrTiO3 substrates are studied. The contribution of the interface boundary to the magnetotransmission is typical of a material with a transitional composition. It is found that a 2-nm-thick SrTiO3 spacer does not influence the shape and position of the magnetotransmission peak in a field normal to the surface of the heterostructure but increases the contribution of the upper layer to the magnetotransmission in the Voigt geometry and also enhances the magnetoresistance that is due to the tunneling of spin-polarized carriers through the spacer. The Kerr spectra taken of the heterostructures are typical of single-layer single-crystal films.  相似文献

The magnetotransport and magnetoresistive (MR) properties of manganese-based La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 perovskite with different grain sizes are reported. The electrical resistivity was measured as a function of temperature in magnetic fields of 0.5 and 1 T. The insulator–metal transition temperature, T IM, shifted to a higher temperature with the application of the magnetic field. In zero field, T IM is almost constant (∼271 K) for all samples except for the sample with the largest grain size, where T IM=265 K. The temperature dependence of resistivity was fitted with several equations in the metallic (ferromagnetic) region and the insulating (paramagnetic) region. The density of states at the Fermi level, N(E F), and the activation energy of electron hopping were estimated by fitting the resistivity versus temperature curves. The ρT 2 curves are nearly linear in the metallic regime, but the ρT 2.5 curves exhibit a deviation from linearity. The variable range hopping model and small polaron hopping model fit the data well in the high-temperature region, indicating the existence of the Jahn–Teller distortion that localizes the charge carriers. MR was found to increase with an increase in the magnetic field, an effect which is attributed to the intergrain spin tunneling effect.  相似文献

The structure, electrical resistivity, and magnetoresistance of (50-nm)La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 epitaxial films grown on a [(80 nm)Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3/La0.3Sr0.7Al0.65Ta0.35O3] substrate with a substantial positive lattice misfit have been studied. The tensile biaxial strains are shown to account for the increase in the cell volume and in the relative concentration of Mn+3 ions in the manganite films as compared to those for the original material (33%). The peak in the temperature dependence of the resistivity ρ of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films was shifted by 30–35 K toward lower temperatures relative to its position in the ρ(T) graph for a manganite film grown on (001)La0.3Sr0.7Al0.65Ta0.35O3. For T < 150 K, the temperature dependences of ρ of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3/Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3/La0.3Sr0.7Al0.65Ta0.35O3 films could be well fitted by the relation ρ = ρ0 + ρ1T4.5, where ρ0 = 0.35 mΩ cm and the coefficient ρ1 decreases linearly with increasing magnetic field. In the temperature interval 4.2–300 K, the magnetoresistance of manganite films was within the interval 15–95% (μ0H = 5 T).  相似文献

40-to 120-nm-thick (001)La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films grown through laser evaporation on (001)NdGaO3 were studied. The lattice parameters of the La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films measured in the substrate plane (a=3.851 Å) and along the normal to its surface (a=3.850 Å) practically coincided with that of the pseudocubic neodymium gallate. The unit-cell volume of the La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 film was slightly smaller than that of stoichiometric bulk samples. The position of the maximum in the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity did not depend on the thickness of the La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 film. The negative magnetoresistance (MR≈?0.25, H=0.4 T) of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films reached a maximum at 239–244 K.  相似文献

The magnetic transport properties have been measured for La0.67-xYxCa0.33MnO3 ( 0 ⩽ x ⩽ 0.14) system. It was found that the transition temperature T p almost linearly moves to higher temperature as H increases. Electron spin resonance confirms that above T p , there exist ferromagnetic clusters. From the magnetic polaron point of view, the shift of T p vs. H was understood, and it was estimated that the size of the magnetic polaron is of 9.7 ∼ 15.4 ? which is consistent with the magnetic correlation length revealed by the small-angle neutron-scattering technique. The transport properties at temperatures higher than T p conform to the variable-range hopping mechanism.

In this paper we report a new method to fabricate nanostructured films, La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 (LCMO) nanostructured films have been fabricated by using pulsed electron beam deposition (PED) on anodized aluminium oxide (AAO) membranes, The magnetic and electronic transport properties are investigated by using the Quantum Design physics properties measurement system (PPMS) and magnetic properties measurement system (MPMS). The resistance peak temperature (Tp) is about 85 K and the Curie temperature (To) is about 250 K for the LCMO film on an AAO membrane with a pore diameter of 20nm. Large magnetoresistance ratio (MR) is observed near Tp. The MR is as high as 85% under 1 T magnetic field. The great enhancement of MR at low magnetic fields could be attributed to the lattice distortion and the grain boundary that are induced by the nanopores on the AAO membrane.  相似文献

We report the charge state modification effects at the Mn site on the ground state properties of colossal magnetoresistive manganites. Ta5+ substitution results in an appreciable increase in the lattice parameters and unit cell volume due to increased Mn3+ concentration. The ferromagnetic-metallic ground state modifies to a cluster glass insulator for . The reduction in the transition temperatures with increasing x is ∼39 K/at.%. Besides the modification of majority carrier concentration due to increased Mn3+ concentration and enhanced local structural effects, the local electrostatic potential of the substituent seems to contribute to the unusually strong reduction of the transition temperatures of the compounds. Thermo magnetic irreversibility just below Curie temperature (Tc), non-saturation of magnetization, two distinct magnetic transitions in ac susceptibility in an appropriate static field: close to Tc and other at low temperature (the spin freezing temperature (Tg)) and non-stationary dynamics with a characteristic maximum in the magnetic viscosity close to Tg confirm a cluster glass state for . These results find additional support from a linear low temperature magnetic specific heat of x = 0.10 with a characteristic broad maximum close to Tg.  相似文献

Nano-constriction array in La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 film was fabricated by using ion beam etching masked by a monolayer of packed and ordered array of SiO2 microspheres. Nano-constrictions of around 50 nm in width were fabricated. The low field magnetoresistance (LFMR) exhibited in the samples were observed to be current dependent and the I-V characteristics of the film were found to be nonlinear. These observations were attributed to the co-existence of the ferromagnetic regions and the nano-constricted region of weakened ferromagnetic coupling where Mn3+-O-Mn4+ bond were distorted due to the ion beam bombardment. The spin polarized bias current would strengthen local ferromagnetic coupling when passing through this nano-constricted regions. This current effect is relatively large comparing to the external magnetic field to the drop of resistance.  相似文献

Thin films of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (001)LaAlO3 crystals. High resolution X-ray diffraction analysis proves the presence of twins in the films at room temperature, showing that the twin structure of the substrate which forms at the ferroelastic transition at TF = 813 K served as a template for the film microstructure. Magnetic measurements indicate a thermomagnetic irreversibility which is ascribed to the quenched disorder related to twinning and discussed in terms of coexisting ferromagnetic and spin disordered regions connected with the undeformed domain cores and strained domain walls respectively.  相似文献

Large low-field-induced magnetic entropy changes, ΔS M, are observed in La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 and La0.67Ca0.33Mn0.96Fe0.04O3 single crystals. The peaks of ΔS M broadened asymmetrically to high temperatures under higher magnetic fields for two materials should be attributed to the first-order magnetic phase transition at T c. A small amount of iron doping results in an increase in the refrigerant capacity of the material though the magnetic entropy change decreases. The discovery of excellent magnetocaloric features of these single crystals in the low magnetic field can provide some ideas for exploring novel magnetic refrigerants operating under permanent magnet rather than superconducting one as magnetic field source.

The behavior of the electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance of 40-to 120-nm-thick La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films grown on differently oriented lanthanum aluminate substrates was studied. The cell volume in thin (40 nm) La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films grown coherently on (001)LaAlO3 was found to be substantially smaller. Mechanical stress relaxation in biaxially strained La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films is accompanied by an increase in the cell volume. The temperatures at which the electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance in biaxially strained La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films were maximum can differ by 60–70 K from those observed in bulk single crystals.  相似文献

The effects of Fe doping on Mn site in the colossal magnetoresistive film, Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3 have been studied by preparing the series Nd0.67Sr0.33Mn1-xFexO3 (x=0,0.05 and 0.1). Upon doping, no structural changes have been found. However, the Curie temperature, the associated metal-to-insulator transition temperature and the magnetization decrease drastically with Fe doping. The resistivity in the paramagnetic regime for all the samples follows Emin–Holsteins theory of small polaron. The polaron activation energy, Wp and resistivity coefficient, A increase with Fe doping. This effect may be ascribed to the fact that upon Fe doping, the long-range ferromagnetic order is destroyed and, therefore, Wp is enhanced in the system. As compared to the La-based system, Fe doping has a stronger tendency to destabilize the long-range ferromagnetic order in the Nd-based system. Large MR (as high as 90%) observed in the epitaxial NSMFO film may be attributed to the good lattice-matching between the grown film and substrate. PACS 75.47.Gk; 75.47.Lx; 75.70.-i  相似文献

The perovskite material (La0.4Pr0.6)0.67Ca0.33MnO3 (LPCMO) has complex electronic and magnetic behavior based on phase competition between ferromagnetic metallic (FMM) and insulating phases with similar free energies. Experimental evidence has indicated that in-plane stress anisotropy influences these phases and can affect electronic and magnetic properties. Here we investigate the roles that both stress and shape anisotropies may play in controlling the coercive field of the material. LPCMO thin films of various thicknesses (20, 25, and 30 nm) were deposited on (110) NdGaO3 (NGO) substrates using pulsed laser deposition and the coercive fields were measured. Photolithography was then used to fabricate microstructured arrays of LPCMO on the NGO substrates for each of the films. The coercive fields of these arrays of LPCMO were compared to the behavior of the corresponding unpatterned LPCMO thin films across a range of temperatures. Microstructure arrays for the thicker (25 and 30 nm) films showed a substantial increase in the coercive field after forming the arrays, whereas a thinner film (20 nm) showed almost no change in the coercive field. Stress anisotropy continues to play a dominant role in the behavior of LPCMO thin films and dimensionality of the magnetic domains also influences the results. The films show 2D behavior when film thickness approaches the size of the critical radius for single-to-multidomain transitions. Making thicker films allows for 3D behavior and a role for shape anisotropy to influence the coercive fields.  相似文献

The magnetoresistance of granular La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 is studied experimentally over wide ranges of temperatures and magnetic fields. The emphasis is on anomalously large hysteresis of magnetoresistance at low temperatures (T = 4.2 K). The observed ρ(H) dependence can be qualitatively explained by spin-dependent tunneling of electrons through the dielectric boundaries of conducting granules characterized by a wide spread in the magnetic-moment magnitudes.  相似文献

The temperature dependences of the velocity of longitudinal sound waves and the internal friction in a La0.82Ca0.18MnO3 single crystal with the Curie temperature T C = 181 K have been studied. As temperature decreases, the single crystal is shown to undergo the transition from the pseudocubic O* to the Jahn–Teller O’ phase at T ~ 254 K and the reverse transition from O’ to O* phase at T ~ 84 K. The velocity of sound and the internal friction in the O’ phase are found to be significantly smaller than those in the O* phase.  相似文献

The structure, electrical resistivity, and magnetoresistance of La0.67Ba0.33MnO3(20 nm) films grown coherently on an La0.3Sr0.7Al0.65Ta0.35O3(001) substrate with a lattice misfit of about 1% were studied. The rigid connection of the manganite layer with the bulk substrate brought about the unit cell distortion of the substrate (a /a = 1.02) and a decrease in the unit cell volume as compared to that of the corresponding bulk crystals (a and a are the unit cell parameters measured in the substrate plane and along the surface normal, respectively). The temperature T M ≈ 295 K, at which the electrical resistivity ρ of the (20 nm)La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 films reached a maximum, was 40–45 K lower than that for the corresponding bulk crystals. The negative magnetoresistance (MR ≈ ?0.25 for μ0 H = 1 T) attained a peak value at T MR ≈ 270 K. The response of ρ to a magnetic field depended substantially on the angle between the current flow in the film and the direction of the magnetic field.  相似文献
