Abstract
We have grown Pr0.7Sr0.3MnO3/La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 bilayer on (001) single crystal SrTiO3 substrate by pulsed laser deposition technique. The bilayer film is well (001) orientation grown with high crystalline quality. When the applied magnetic field increases up to 9 T, only metal-like transport behavior can be observed below room temperature. The Low-field MR (LFMR) as large as ~−73% has been achieved at an applied field of 1 T and the magnetoresistance (MR) can reach a value of ~−641% at an applied field of 9 T. Ferromagnetic (FM) clusters percolation accompanied with the collapse (melting) of charge-ordered (CO) state in La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 may be responsible for the enhancement of MR. Moreover, the disappearance of exchange bias (EB) in the bilayer demonstrates the existence of FM clusters percolation at the PSMO/LCMO interface. Large LFMR provides possibilities in developing manganite-based FM/CO film devices.
