Gj. Lian et al., ANOMALOUS RESISTANCE BEHAVIOR OBSERVED ACROSS THE INTERFACE OF SUPERCONDUCTING YBA2CU3O7 AND FERROMAGNETIC LA0.7CA0.3MNO3, Solid state communications, 108(2), 1998, pp. 123-126
Temperature dependencies of the resistance across the interface of sup
erconducting YBa2Cu3O7 and ferromagnetic La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 were investiga
ted in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/YBa2Cu3O7 double-layer and cross-strip samples.
Anomalous resistance behavior, a relatively large resistance value wit
h a superconducting-like transition, was observed in both samples. In
the cross-strip sample the voltage signal changed to extremely large n
egative values in the temperature region of 170-90 K, which was corres
ponding to the resistance peak in the LCMO strip. A possible explanati
on is discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
