Intrinsic tunneling in phase separated manganites.
We present evidence of direct electron tunneling across intrinsic insulating regions in submicrometer wide bridges of the phase-separated ferromagnet (La,Pr,Ca)MnO3. Upon cooling below the Curie temperature, a predominantly ferromagnetic supercooled state persists where tunneling across the intrinsic tunnel barriers (ITBs) results in metastable, temperature-independent, high-resistance plateaus...
متن کاملSpin-dependent Transport in Phase-separated Manganites
Starting from the assumption that ferromagnetically correlated regions exist in manganites even in the absence of long-range magnetic order, we construct a model of charge transfer due to the spin-dependent tunnelling of charge carriers between such regions. This model allows us to analyze the temperature and magnetic field dependence of resistivity, magnetoresistance, and magnetic susceptibili...
متن کاملTunneling magnetoresistance in phase-separated manganite nanobridges
The manganite La,Pr,Ca MnO3 is well known for its micrometer-scale phase separation into coexisting ferromagnetic metallic FMM and insulating regions. Fabrication of bridges with widths smaller than the phase-separation length scale has allowed us to probe the magnetic properties of individual phase-separated regions. At the onset of phase separation, a magnetic field induced insulator-to-metal...
متن کاملInstability of metal-insulator transition against thermal cycling in phase separated Cr-doped manganites
Pr0.5Ca0.5Mn1−xCrxO3 (x= 0.015-0.05) undergoes an insulator-metal (I-M) transition below a temperature Tp driven by percolation of ferromagnetic metallic clusters in a charge ordered insulating matrix. Surprisingly, the I-M transition in these compounds is unstable against thermal cycling : Tp decreases and the resistivity at Tp increases upon temperature cycling between a starting temperature ...
متن کاملNanoscale phase separation in manganites
We study the possibility of nanoscale phase separation in manganites in the framework of the double exchange model. The homogeneous canted state of this model is proved to be unstable toward the formation of small ferromagnetic droplets inside an antiferromagnetic insulating matrix. For the ferromagnetic polaronic state we analyze the quantum effects related to the tails of electronic wave func...
