Abstract
We have carried out a study of composite, granular films made by depositing LCMO (a colossal magnetoresistive perovskite) and pure, metallic Au onto M gO and LaAlO3 substrates. Elevated temperature caused the Au to segregate i nto small, micron-sized granules. The films were studied by atomic force mi croscopy, magnetoresistivity, superconducting quantum interference device m agnetization measurements, and magnetically modulated microwave absorption.
