Thickness dependence of the electrical resistivity and the temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) is reported for MnSb films in the thickness range 35 to 300 nm for different substrate temperatures. Films deposited at higher substrate temperatures exhibit marked size effect. The thickness dependence of the Curie temperaure also indicates some size effect. The experimental data are analysed using Fuchs‐Sondheimer and Mayadas‐Shatzkes theories.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
