Electrical behaviour of strontium-doped lanthanum manganite interfaces

    Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

    Abstract

    The contact resistance of strontium-doped lanthanum manganite (LSM) contact pairs is investigated by polarisation analysis at different temperatures and atmospheres.

    The ceramic contacts have a high contact resistance, and strongly nonlinear current–voltage behaviour is observed at low temperatures. The nonlinear behaviour is ascribed to the presence of energy barriers at the contact interface.

    Generally, point contacts showed a more linear behaviour than plane contact interfaces.
