  • Abstract
    In this work, ionic size or the radius of A-site cation A> was utilized for the fine-tuning of the magnetoresistance (MR) of Nd0.5Ca0.5-ySryMnO3. The values of A> were set to be from 1.182 Å to 1.20 Å. The highest MR ratio was obtained to be ∼ 800% at 50 K in the samples with y = 0.08. Furthermore, the "spin valve" like behavior was observed at 100 K at the same sample, which may have originated from the melting of charge ordering.
