Abstract: | The granular composites of (1−x)La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/xSrFe12O19 [(1−x)LSMO/xSFO] were prepared. The magnetic, electrical, and magnetoresistive properties of the composites were investigated systematically. Two magnetic transitions originating from LSMO and SFO are observed for x=0.05, 0.10, and 0.20. The addition of hard-magnetic SFO ferrite leads to the increased substantially resistivity of the composites and the shift of insulating-metallic transition temperature TIM correlated with LSMO. Enhanced low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) in the composites can be mainly attributed to the enhanced spin disorder and spin-dependent tunneling at LSMO grain boundaries induced by the interaction between LSMO and SFO ferrite. The transport mechanisms in detail are analyzed in LSMO/SFO composite system. |
