Abstract:
Current-induced switching from a metallic to an insulating state is observed in phase-separated states of (La(1-y)Pr(y))0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (y=0.7) and Nd(0.5)Ca(0.5)Mn(1-z)Cr(z)O3 (z=0.03) crystals. The application of magnetic fields to this current-induced insulating state causes a pronounced low-field negative magnetoresistance effect [rho(H)/rho(0)=10(-3) at H=1 kOe]. The application of a constant voltage also causes the breakdown of the Ohmic relation above a threshold voltage. At voltages higher than this threshold value, oscillations in currents are observed. This oscillation is well reproduced by a simple model of local switching of a percolative conduction path.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
