Transport behaviors of the LSMO films on SrTiO3(100) substrates, showing (a) the R – T curves of LSMO films grown at a pressure of 1 × 10−3 mbar with three different thickness values, (b) the temperature dependences of resistances for 13-nm films at three different pressures, (c) resistivities of the films deposited at two different substrate temperatures versus pressure. (d) The temperature dependences of resistivities for various dc current and green light intensities. (The films in panels (a) and (c) are deposited at the same pressure 1 × 10−3 mbar. The films in panels (b) and (d) have the same thickness value of 13 nm).
