摘要
Unusual thermal and magnetic hysteresis is observed near the insulator-metal transition of La2/3Ca1/3Mn1-xCuxO3 (x=4.5%). For the temperature range at which the hysteresis appears, the sample shows unusual giant magnetoresistance (MR) behavior even for a low field of similar to0.3 T. The maximum MR has a value of Deltarho/rho(H=0) as high as similar to90% for the 0.3 T field. A possible discussion is presented by considering the sample as a granular system consisting of manganese grains surrounded by some surface layer created due to the Cu segregation towards the grain surface.
