Abstract
The integration of functional oxide thin films on flexible substrates is critical for their application in flexible electronics. Here, to achieve flexible perovskite manganite oxide film with excellent low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) effect, textured La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO):ZnO nanocomposite film was deposited on a flexible mica substrate with ZnO buffer using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Compared to the polycrystalline LSMO:ZnO nanocomposite film directly deposited on mica without buffer, the LSMO:ZnO/ZnO/mica sample exhibits larger saturation magnetization (164 emu/cm3) and higher Curie temperature (∼319 K), which results from the crystallinity and strain in the LSMO phase. In addition, the LSMO:ZnO/ZnO/mica film presents a high MR value of ∼39% at 10 K under 1 T. Furthermore, the good mechanical stretchability and property stability of the nanocomposite thin films have been demonstrated with mechanical bending.
