Abstract

The near zero temperature coefficient of resistivity (NZ-TCR) in Mn-based antiperovskite Mn3Ni1−xCuxN is reported. The temperature range of NZ-TCR is controllable by changing Cu content. Further, the TCR value of 0.09 ppm K−1 was obtained in Mn3Ni0.5Cu0.5N over a broad temperature range around room temperature. The anomalous resistivity change of Mn3Ni1−xCuxN from metal-like to NZ-TCR behavioris apparently due to a magnetic transition. The possible reason for the formation of NZ-TCR is interpreted on the basis of spin-disorder scattering.
