Abstract
- Epitaxial thin films of La 0.9 Ca 0.1 MnO 3 were grown on (100) oriented 0.7Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 -0.3PbTiO 3 (PMN-PT) single-crystal substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The heterostructure composed of manganite and ferroelectric would enable us to control and study the electric/magnetic properties of manganite by means of tunable strain induced via the piezoelectric effect of PMN-PT. X-ray diffraction revealed that the ferroelectric poling remarkably modify the in-plane tensile strain introduced in the La 0.9 Ca 0.1 MnO 3 film, which gives rise to tune resistance and Curie temperature T C . It is also found that due to poling of PMN-PT the magnetoresistance of La 0.9 Ca 0.1 MnO 3 is reduced in the paramagnetic state, but increased in ferromagnetic state. The observed effects of residual strain on magnetoresistance could be explained by the Jahn-Teller distortion and polarization effect on the coexistence of multiple phases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
