摘要
The resistance of polycrystalline divalent-ion-doped LaMnO3 has been shown to be highly sensitive to low magnetic fields. To enable direct study of the properties of isolated grain boundaries, we developed a new method to form artificial boundaries in manganite thin films. Metal slits about 70nm in width were printed by 30KV focused Ga ion beam nanolithography on a 4 mu m La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 bridge, and the materials in these slits were then irradiated by accelerated H-2(+) ions. Using this method, magnetoresistance (MR) > 8% and > 16% were, respectively, obtained at 150 and at 10K in a magnetic field of 1T. This technique is very promising in terms of its simplicity and flexibility of fabrication and has the potential for high-density integration. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
