GIANT NEGATIVE PHOTOCONDUCTIVITY in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 THIN FILMS — •Vasily Moshnyaga1, Arnold Giske1, Konrad Samwer1, Elena Mishina2, Takehisa Tamura2, Seiichiro Nakabayashi2, Alexandr Belenchuk3, Oleg Shapoval3, and Leonid Kulyuk31I.

The increase of the resistance up to two orders of magnitude under laser illumination (l=760 nm) was observed in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) epitaxial thin films in ferromagnetic state. Optical absorption also increases by 10-15 procent and the magnetic second harmonic generation (SHG) signal decreases down to zero under the irradiation. The light induced changes are reversible with characteristic relaxation times t 1-30 s. Magnetic field, B=4 T, suppresses the photoconductivity and decreases its relaxation time. Photoinduced effects are caused by the injection of a large number of extra carriers, which change the AFM/FM phase balance in LCMO, favoring the insulating AFM state. Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft via SFB, project A2 Goettingen, and the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science are acknowledged.
