Electric current-induced giant electroresistance in La0.36Pr0.265Ca0.375MnO3 thin films
The electroresistance(ER) of La_(0.36)Pr_(0.265)Ca_(0.375)MnO_3(LPCMO) epitaxial thin film was studied under various dc currents.The current effect was compared for the unpatterned film and patterned microbridge with a width of 50 μm.The value of ER in the unpatterned LPCMO film could reach 0.54 und...

Summary: | The electroresistance(ER) of La_(0.36)Pr_(0.265)Ca_(0.375)MnO_3(LPCMO) epitaxial thin film was studied under various dc currents.The current effect was compared for the unpatterned film and patterned microbridge with a width of 50 μm.The value of ER in the unpatterned LPCMO film could reach 0.54 under a 1-mA current,which is much higher than ER under 1 mA for the patterned weak phase-separated La_(0.67)Ca_(0.33)MnO_3 and La_(0.85)Sr_(0.15)MnO_3 microbridges with 50-μm width.More interestingly,for the patterned LPCMO microbridge,the maximum of ER can reach 0.6 under a small current of 100 μ.A.The results were explained by considering the coexistence of ferromagnetic metallic phase with the charge-ordered phase,and the variation of the phase separation with electric current. |
