Abstract:
The La 0.96Sr 0.04MnO 3/ SrNb 0.01Ti 0.99O 3 p-n heterojunction fabricated by the magnetron sputtering technique exhibits excellent rectifying characteristics over the temperature range from 20 to 300 K. From fitting results of the I-V curves, it is found that the electrical transport properties of the hetero-structure are mainly affected by the thermal activation effect above 100 K. Moreover, the heterojunction exhibits obvious metal-insulator transition at 170 K, the curve of temperature vs. resistance shows an insulator → metal → insulator transition process. Under a magnetic field of 5 T, the magnetoresistance (MR) of the heterojunction increases from negative to positive with the temperature increasing under forward voltages. And an opposite process occurs under reverse voltages. The largest negative MR is -50.6% under reverse voltage of -1 V at the metal-insulator transition temperature.
