Transport Properties in Electron-Doped La$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ Thin Films
ORAL
Abstract
The electron-doped high-Tc cuprate La$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ (LCCO) is quite different from other members, such as Pr$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ (PCCO) and Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ (NCCO). One distinct difference is that the optimal Ce doping in LCCO is $\sim $0.10, compared to Ce $\sim $0.15 in PCCO and NCCO. Here, we will present a detailed and systematic study of the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the transport properties of LCCO, including the low-temperature Hall effect and in-plane angular magnetoresistance.
