摘要
The optical and magneto-optical (MO) properties of (La(0.7)A(0.3))MnO(3) (A = Sr, Ca, and Ce) thin films have been investigated. It is found that the value shape of spectra is strongly dependent on different cation dopings. The Sr-doped thin film exhibits a strong Drude response and maximum Kerr rotation angle of 0.32 degrees at similar to 3.4 eV. Interestingly, the replacement of Sr ions with the smaller Ca ions and the tetravalent Ce ions all lead to a remarkable suppression of the carrier density and the MO response. Such differences are interpreted as due to their different electronic band structures. (C) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
