Oscillatory Exchange Coupling and Positive Magnetoresistance in Epitaxial Oxide Heterostructures

Abstract

Oscillations in the exchange coupling between ferromagnetic La2/3Ba1/3MnO3 layers with paramagnetic LaNiO3 spacer layer thickness has been observed in epitaxial heterostructures of the two oxides. This behavior is explained within the RKKY model employing an ab initio calculated band structure of LaNiO3, taking into account strong electron scattering in the spacer. Antiferromagnetically coupled superlattices exhibit a positive current-in-plane magnetoresistance.
