The length is up to several centimeters and is only limited by the size of the collector. The well-ordered straight-line structure ensures the transport measurement, which is impossible to be carried out for the random nanowires fabricated by the traditional electrospinning method. Magnetic and transport measurements indicate that the physical properties of the LSMO nanowires depend sensitively on the doping concentration. At the optimum doping, the LSMO wires are ferromagnetic at room temperature with a metal-insulator transition temperature close to room temperature. Magnetic force microscopy studies are also performed to provide a microscopic view of these ultra-long nanowires.展开更多

We show that in thin film form, the magnetic and transport properties of manganites can be tuned in a wide range using epitaxial strain. Specifically, by systematically varying the strain from negative to positive, we have observed 65%, -33%, 650%, and -17% changes for the saturation magnetization field Hs, saturation magnetization Ms, resistivity, and metal-insulator transition temperature. We explain these results with density functional theory calculations.展开更多
