A comparative study of angle dependent magnetoresistance in [001] and [110] $La_{2/3}Sr_{1/3}MnO_3$

TL;DR

This study compares angle-dependent magnetoresistance in [001] and [110] La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_3$ thin films, revealing higher anisotropy energy in [110] films and validating the multidomain model for explanation.

Contribution

It provides a comparative analysis of magnetoresistance anisotropy in different crystal orientations of La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_3$ thin films using the multidomain model.

Findings

[110] films have higher anisotropy energy than [001] films.

Multidomain model accurately explains the observed magnetoresistance behavior.

Orientation-dependent magnetic properties are characterized in La$_{2/3}$Sr$_{1/3}$MnO$_3$ films.

Abstract

The angle dependent magnetoresistance study on [001] and [110] La$_{2 / 3}$Sr$_{1 / 3}$MnO$_{3}$ thin films show that the anisotropy energy of [110] films is higher when compared with a [001] oriented La$_{2 / 3}$Sr$_{1 / 3}$MnO$_{3}$ film of similar thickness. The data has been analyzed in the light of multidomain model and it is seen that this model correctly explains the observed behavior.
