Abstract
The ac susceptibility, electrical properties, and magnetotransport properties of the as-prepared MnxCu1−xO thin films (x=7%–29%) were studied in the temperature range of 2–300 K. The susceptibility measurement shows that ferromagnetic transition takes place for the samples with x≥14% below 100 K. The transport properties show the transition from variable-range-hopping to metalliclike behavior at the same transition temperature as the paramagnetism to ferromagnetism transition. The metal-insulator transition is a characteristic feature of magnetic ordering in this material.
