Abstract
Conditions for the appearance of quantized anisotropic magnetoresistance (QAMR) in ferromagnetic conductors have been investigated from the viewpoint of the transmission channels calculated by method of the nonequilibrium Green's function--density functional theory. We demonstrate that the spin-orbital interaction is a precondition and the transverse size is a crucial condition for QAMR to emerge. Furthermore, we show the evolution of QAMR from a stepwise shape (corresponding to small transverse sizes) to a classical smooth cosine shape (corresponding to large transverse sizes). In addition, we prove the strong temperature dependence of QAMR, so a low temperature is necessary. Our research reconciles the different experiments and enlightens experimenters on QAMR.
