Notes:
Epitaxial films of La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 were successively implanted with 100 and 200 keV silver ions at fluences of 4.5×1015 and 1×1016 ions/cm2, respectively, to achieve a fairly uniform implant distribution. The as-implanted films are insulating and do not show a metal–insulator transition. Postimplantation annealing at 950 °C shows a recovery of the high structural quality of the films, along with an increase in the metal–insulator transition temperature (Tp), magnetoresistance, and the peak temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) at the transition. The peak TCR of 23% for manganite films is clearly significant for bolometric applications. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
