Abstract

The colossal magnetoresistive La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 (LSMO) thin film was prepared on the MgO (100) single crystal substrate using KrF excimer pulsed laser deposition technique. The LSMO film deposited at the substrate temperature of 850 °C, oxygen pressure of 500 mTorr and laser energy density of 2 J/cm2(5 Hz) showed the resistivity peak temperature (Tp) of 330 K and the magnetoresi stance change of 15 %(H=0.7 T) at the room temperature. The large lattice mismatch with the substrate increased Tp and decreased the resistivity of the LSMO film.

The X-ray diffraction measurement for the PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 (PZT) / LSMO heterostructures indicated both c-axis and in- plane orientation, with the good PZT surface morphology.
