摘要
We present a self-consistent effective medium theory for the magnetotransport in nanometric manganites on the basis of the bond-disordered resistor network. The transport process here is assumed to be controlled by both the charging energies of grains and the spin-polarized tunneling through grain boundaries. The effects of network and band-bending at the grain boundaries on the magnetotransport are investigated. Our results are compared with the experiments on nanometric La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 and La2/3Ca1/3MnO3; good agreements are found.
