The resistivities of LSMO, PC-MO and LPL films are measured using standard four-probe method and analyzed log ρ/T curve. From the results it is concluded that the middle-layered PCMO which is ferromagnetic may play a role of intra-magnetic field, which weakens the paramagnetism of LSMO film, lowers ρmax and enlarges Tp which is the transition temperature from metal to insulator, just as the applied magnetic field does. And the middle-layered PCMO may induce the change of the density of states in the LSMO' s gap. The two reasons above make the resistivity and Tp of the samples in zero field change with the thickness of PCMO layers.展开更多
