Abstract

High quality perovskite Nd _0.6Sr _0.33MnO ₃ thin films were grown on LaAlO ₃ single crystal substrates using pulsed laser ablation. The detailed microstructure studies of the films were carried out using x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and high-resolution TEM. These studies were correlated with the transport properties of the films, including their magnetization and electrical resistivity. The results show that high degree of crystallinity leads to improved transport properties like smaller resistivities at both peak and room temperatures.
