摘要
We report on the observation of enhanced low-field magnetoresistance in La2/3Ca1/3MnO3/Pr2/3Ca1/3MnO3 (LCMO/PCMO) superlattices with ultrathin PCMO layers. In particular, [LCMO(100 Angstrom)/PCMO(10 Angstrom)](17) superlattice exhibits magnetoresistance MR=Deltarho/rho(0)=-55% in a magnetic field of 500 Oe and at temperature 219 K. The enhancement is associated with the ultrasharp metal-insulator transition. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
