摘要
Using magnetron sputtering technique, a series of La-2 Sr-3(1) MnO3 polycrystalime films with various thickness, t, were prepared on Si (100) substrates with oxidized surface. The electrical transport properties of the film materials were investigated. It has been found that with the change of the film thickness the resistivity appears to be a significant change at thickness around 73 nm. XRD studies revealed that there is a corresponding change for the lattice parameters when the thickness of the films is less than 73 rim. It is believed that the observed big change of the resistivity at the thickness of around 73 nm is attributed to the enhancement of scattering of the conduction electrons, which is resulted from the distortion of the lattice structure.
