摘要
Non-linear resistivity in La0.78Ca0.25MnO3 epitaxial thin films is studied using 2-contact dynamic measurements. Non-linear V-l is obtained below T-c ( similar to 220 K). Evaporated gold or direct silver-paste contacts give similar results. dV/dI at high voltages ( similar to 1 V) follows the usual four-point resistance results, but at lower voltages an additional contribution up to 2 orders of magnitude higher develops at low temperatures. These effects are associated with tunneling processes at the metal/manganite interface. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
