Abstract
The dynamics and interaction of different electronic phases near the metal-to-insulator transition of the phase-separated ${({\mathrm{La}}_{0.5}{\mathrm{Pr}}_{0.5})}_{0.625}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.375}\mathrm{Mn}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (LPCMO) thin film grown on NGO substrate was studied using the first-order reversal curves (FORC) diagram method for electric transport measurements. The in-plane angle-dependent remanence and coercivity field in the region of the ferromagnet metallic phase was measured using the macroscopic magnetization technique. These measurements suggest an in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy for the film with a uniaxial anisotropic constant (Ku) of $\ensuremath{\sim}1.2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{erg}/\mathrm{c}{\mathrm{m}}^{3}$ at 20 K. The angle dependence of the coercivity is best described by 1/cos\ensuremath{\theta} dependence indicating that the magnetization reversal occurs mainly through the depinning of the domain wall, a signature of nucleation and propagation mechanism. The correlation of FORC measurements, resistance relaxation, and macroscopic magnetic measurements indicate a fast reversal of electronic and magnetic phases towards the denser phase region and strong interaction of different phases for the LPCMO system.
