Extrinsic electronic transport in La0.7(Sr,Ca)0.3MnO3 films deposited on step edges and bicrystal substrates

In this paper, the electronic transport of La(0.7)(Sr,Ca)(0.3)MnO(3) films grown by pulsed laser deposition on a LaAlO(3)(001) substrate with deep parallel structured steps and a 30° symmetric bicrystal SrTiO(3)(001) substrate have been discussed. The electronic transport properties have been related to the well-known extrinsic transport of bulk manganite compounds. The spin-glass-like behavior with a characteristic peak at 20 K and domain formation at the grain boundary is observed. Further, it has been quantified from the resonant tunneling model that mixed magnetic interactions play a significant role in the manganite films deposited on step edges.

Negative spin-polarization of SrRuO3

We have made Meservey-Tedrow style spin-polarized tunneling measurements on SrRuO3, using a SrTiO3 barrier. In contrast to all other materials measured with this technique, we found the spin polarization to be negative, P = -9.5%. This makes it possible to test the generalized Julliere model for a negatively spin-polarized electrode, by measuring the magnetoresistance of a La(0.7)Sr(0. 3)MnO(3)/SrTiO(3)/SrRuO(3) tunnel junction. The generalized Julliere theory predicts it should be inverse.     

Superhydrophobicity of LaMnO3 Coatings with Hierarchical Microstructures

As proposed by Herminghaus, a hierarchical structure could render any surface nonwettable as long as the roughness amplitude at small scales is sufficient to suspend a free liquid surface. Recently we reported that the wettability of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3, an intrinsic hydrophilic oxide, can be tuned from superhydrophilicity to superhydrophobicity by hierarchical microstructures generated by annealing the coatings of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 powder in nanometric scale at different temperatures. Here we further demonstrate the similar phenomenon observed on LaMaO3 coatings, which conforms THAT the surface geometrical structure is a key factor to determine the wettability.     

Anomalous Hall effect in La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/SrTiO3 superlattices: hopping transport and a probe of dimensionality

The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/SrTiO3 (LSMO/STO) superlattices was analyzed using theories of the Berry phase effect. The temperature-dependent anomalous Hall coefficient Rs is found to be expressed by -Rs = Rs0 exp[(T/T0)1.5], where Rs0 is a prefactor and T0 is in units of kelvin, and is explained by the carrier-hopping mechanism. In addition, a scaling analysis for the Hall resistivity as a function of magnetization supports the scenario of the Berry phase effects. Furthermore, a shifting extremum of Hall resistivity in LSMO/STO superlattices is observed and regarded as a probe of dimensionality in quasi-two-dimensional systems.

Dynamic evanescent phonon coupling across the La(1-x)Sr(x)MnO3/SrTiO3 interface

The transport and magnetic properties of correlated La0.53Sr0.47MnO3 ultrathin films, grown epitaxially on SrTiO3, show a sharp cusp at the structural transition temperature of the substrate. Using a combination of experiment and first principles theory we show that the cusp is a result of evanescent cross-interface coupling between the charge carriers in the film and a soft phonon mode in the SrTiO3, mediated through linked oxygen octahedral motions. The amplitude of the mode diverges at the transition temperature, and phonons are launched into the first few atomic layers of the film, affecting its electronic state.

Hidden magnetic configuration in epitaxial La(1-x) Sr(x) MnO3 films

We present an unreported magnetic configuration in epitaxial La(1-x) Sr(x) MnO3 (x ～ 0.3) (LSMO) films grown on strontium titanate (STO). X-ray magnetic circular dichroism indicates that the remanent magnetic state of thick LSMO films is opposite to the direction of the applied magnetic field. Spectroscopic and scattering measurements reveal that the average Mn valence varies from mixed Mn(3+)/Mn(4+) to an enriched Mn3+ region near the STO interface, resulting in a compressive lattice along the a, b axis and a possible electronic reconstruction in the Mn e(g) orbital (d(3)z(2)-r(2). This reconstruction may provide a mechanism for coupling the Mn3+ moments antiferromagnetically along the surface normal direction, and in turn may lead to the observed reversed magnetic configuration.

Observation of minority spin character of the new electron doped manganite La0.7Ce0.3MnO3 from tunneling magnetoresistance

We report the magnetotransport characteristics of a trilayer ferromagnetic tunnel junction built of an electron doped manganite (La0.7Ce0.3MnO3) and a hole doped manganite (La0.7Ca0.3MnO3). At low temperatures the junction exhibits a large positive tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), irrespective of the bias voltage. At intermediate temperatures below T(C) the sign of the TMR is dependent on the bias voltage across the junction. The magnetoresistive characteristics of the junction strongly suggest that La0.7Ce0.3MnO3 is a minority spin carrier ferromagnet with a high degree of spin polarization, i.e., a transport half-metal.

Two-phase character of metallic ferromagnetism in manganites

(55)Mn NMR spectra of several ferromagnetic manganites, including La(0.7)Ca(0.3)MnO(3) and La(0.7)Sr(0.3) MnO(3), were measured as a function of temperature. A thorough analysis of the spin-spin relaxation and the NMR line shape revealed that in these compounds two different ferromagnetic phases coexist below T(C) in a certain temperature interval which depends on the composition. The phase with lower hyperfine field has faster nuclear relaxation, its characteristic dimension is a few nm, and its volume decreases with decreasing temperature. The NMR lines of both phases are motionally narrowed, i.e., the electron holes are mobile.
