摘要
Sintered La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 ceramics were prepared by standard solid-state reaction route. Some of these pellets were again heated to 850 degrees C and quenched to room temperature. These samples were then studied for low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) effects. Remarkably, upon quenching from high temperature the polycrystalline as well as the crystalline samples are seen to exhibit a dramatic change in LFMR with the emergence of a large positive MR. In the quenched samples a positive LFMR as high as 48% was noted in a field of 200 Oe. This positive MR effect was found to show time-dependent relaxation.
