Magnetocapacitance and exponential magnetoresistance in manganite–titanate heterojunctions

Abstract: We present a rectifying manganite-titanate heterojunction exhibiting a magnetic field tunable depletion layer. This creates a large positive magnetocapacitance, a direct measure of the fieldinduced reduction of the effective depletion width across the junction. Furthermore, the reduction of the junction barrier shifts the forward bias characteristics, giving exponentially-enhanced differential magnetoresistance, occurring despite the absence of a spin filter. These results provide a unique probe of a Mott insu… Show more

“…Qualitatively, the frequency dependence is very similar to that reported for superlattices, 11 although the sign of the magnetocapacitance is different. MR has been assumed here to reside in the manganite layers, but spin-dependent tunneling across the ferroelectric is also possible, as is magnetic tuning of size of the depletion layers at the manganite-titanate junctions; 30 in either case the sign of the magnetocapacitance would be the opposite of that calculated here. The frequency dependence can be interpreted as follows.…”

“…In summary, the present work demonstrates a new three-terminal device platform for perovskite oxide heterostructures, which should provide useful for hot-electron spectroscopy of heterostructures incorporating strong electron interactions and quantum wells 25 , as well as magnetically active junctions 26 . In the hot-electron regime, the low current gains are far from commercial relevance as basic transistors, and they are comparable to those of metal-base spin-valve transistors 27 .…”

“…With the current movement towards advanced functionality in complex oxide devices, various studies have examined the high sensitivity of perovskite Schottky junctions to external perturbations such as magnetic field 1,2 , light irradiation 3 and electric field 4 . Furthermore, by applying atomic scale growth techniques in oxide thin films, oxide Schottky barrier heights (SBH) can be modulated by tuning interface dipoles 5 and introducing resonant artificial interface states 6 .…”
