摘要
We present magnetic and transport properties of nanocrystalline La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 powders prepared by a gel-combustion method using citric acid as the fuel. The coercive magnetic field H-c is significantly different to the field H*(c) for which the magnetoresistance (MR) is maximum. The MR at low fields (LFMR) exhibits a power-law dependence with magnetization, MR proportional to M-n, with n = 2.5-3.3 for temperatures ranging from 5 to 200 K. The results are discussed in terms of a distribution of particle size in our sample. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
