The effect of magnetic (phase) inhomogeneities upon the low temperature conductivity of antiferromagnetic La_{2}CuO_{4+δ} single crystal

It is found that a strong inhomogeneous distribution of oxygen in single crystal La_{2}CuO_{4+δ} can lead to the formation of isolated superconducting inclusions, the average hole concentration being no more than 0.0024 per Cu atom. The behavior of the conductivity in the magnetic field below T=20 K is consistent with possible existence of a insulating low-temperature magnetic phase (spin density waves), which is typical of cuprates with excess oxygen.

Influence of magnetic field on paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition in La$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$MnO$_{3}$ ($x\approx 0.25$) crystal: ultrasonic and transport studies

The ultrasonic properties of La$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$MnO$_{3}$ ($x\approx 0.25$) with the Curie temperature $T_C$ about 200 K are studied. Temperature dependences of longitudinal and transverse sound velocities were measured in zero magnetic field and for different constant magnetic fields as well. The ultrasonic study is supported by magnetic, resistive, magnetoresistive, structural and other measurements of the sample that facilitate interpretation of the results obtained. The magnetic field influence on sound properties found in this study presents some new features of the interplay between the elastic and magnetic properties of these compounds. It is shown that the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition in the sample studied is first order, but can become second order under the influence of applied magnetic field.

Giant magnetic-field changes in radio-frequency absorption in La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$ near the Curie temperature

The DC transport properties of and the radio-frequency (RF) wave absorption (at 2.525 MHz) in a sample of La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ prepared by floating-zone method are measured. The Curie temperature, $T_{c}$, of the sample is about 374 K. Giant temperature and magnetic-field variations in RF absorption are found in the vicinity of $T_{c}$. Relative change of the RF absorption in magnetic field (magnetoabsorption) is about 67% in field 2.1 kOe and about 55% in field 1 kOe. This giant magnetoabsorption effect can be used to develop RF devices controlled by temperature and low magnetic field. A weak temperature dependence of magnetoabsorption for the sample studied in the range from room temperature to about 350 K makes it especially attractive for practical use. The RF study supplemented with transport, magnetoresistive and magnetic measurements enables us to discuss the optimal properties of manganite samples for observation of giant magnetoabsorption in low field.

Negative magnetoresistance in the nearest-neighbour hopping conduction in granular gold film

The low temperature (0.5-55 K) conduction of semicontinuous gold film vacuum deposited at T \approx 50 K is studied. The film is near the percolation threshold (thickness 3.25 nm). Its resistance is extremely sensitive to the applied voltage U. At low enough U the film behaves as an insulator (two-dimensional granular metal). In this state the dependences R(T) \propto \exp (1/T) (for T \leq 20 K) and R(U) \propto \exp (1/U)) (for T \leq 1 K and U > 0.1 V) are observed. Magnetoresistance (MR) is negative and can be described by ΔR(H)/R(0) \propto -H^2/T. This negative MR which manifests itself for nearest-neighbour hopping is rather uncommon and, up to now, has not been clarified. The possible mechanisms of such case of negative MR are discussed.

Electron relaxation in disordered gold films

The analysis of quantum corrections to magnetoconductivity of thin Au films responsible for by the effect of weak electron localization has made it possible to determine the temperature dependences of electron phase relaxation time in the temperature range 0.5--50 K for different degrees of crystal lattice disorder. The disorder was enhanced by irradiating the films in vacuum with 3.5 keV Ar ions. The experimental data clearly demonstrate that the contribution of electron-electron interaction to electron phase relaxation increases with disorder and support the theoretical prediction that the frequency of electron-phonon scattering tends to diminish upon a decrease in electron mean free path. It is found that the spin-orbit scattering rate decreases with disorder. In our opinion, such unusual behavior can take place for thin films at decreasing the electron mean free path provided, that the surface electron scattering contributes significantly to the total spin-orbit scattering.
