Abstract

This paper reports on a study of photoinduced resistivity changes in thin films of ferromagnetic metallic (FMM) manganites. We have observed a significant increase of resistance in La0.7Ba0.3MnO3 thin film under continuous wave argon ion laser illumination presumably associated with photoinduced demagnetization. Strong dependence of resistance on thermal/illumination history is consistent with the coexistence of two phases: ferromagnetic metallic phase and photoinduced less conductive phase.
