The simulated results agree well with the reported experimental data, showing a transition from a charge-disordered (CDO) state embedded with a few ferromagnetic (FM) metallic clusters to a charge-ordered (CO) state, corresponding to the transition from a high-temperature paramagnetic (PM) insulating state to a low-temperature antiferromagnetic (AF) insulating state. Furthermore, we find that the number of AF/CO clusters increases with decreasing temperature, and the clusters start to connect to each other around 250K, which causes percolating in the system. The results further verify that phase separation plays a crucial role in the electrical conductivity of LCMO.展开更多

It was found that the film deposited at lower oxygen pressure shows larger c-axis parameter,higher resistance,and more distinct electroresistance. These results reveal that the electroresistance of manganite thin films can be tuned by the conditions of film fabrication.展开更多
