Magnetoresistance in bicrystal Fe3O4 thin films — •A. Bollero1, M. Ziese1, P. Esquinazi1, K. Dörr2, and I. Mönch21University of Leipzig, Division of Magnetism and Superconductivity, Linnéstrasse 5, 04103 Leipzig — 2Institute for Metallic Materials, IFW Dresden, Helmholtzstr. 20, 01069 Dresden

Epitaxial and polycrystalline Fe3O4 films can have a large high-field magnetoresistance (absent in bulk material) attributed to electron transfer across the antiphase boundaries (APBs) [1]. In the present work an epitaxial magnetite (Fe3O4) film has been deposited by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique on a bicrystal substrate. Magnetoresistance measurements on patterned stripes (width = 20 µm) across the bicrystal grain boundary have not revealed a distinguishable grain boundary contribution, by comparison with similar experiments performed on manganese perovskites [2]. Post-annealing of the film leads to a significantly enlarged high-field magnetoresistance with decreasing temperature for T < TV (TV: Verwey transition temperature). Decreased resistivity and coercivity values are obtained after annealing of the film which is attributed to a reduction in the density of APBs.
