摘要
We investigate the photoinduced resistance change (ΔR/R) in a La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 film (Tc~325 K) at different applied dc currents I (0.1-2.0mA) at 295K. At I = 0.1 mA, we have found a significant photoinduced ΔR/ R 17% under photo-irradiation at excitation energy Eexc=3.05 eV and pump power Ppump =2.5 mJ/cm^2, which has been ascribed to the photo-excited down-spin eg carriers and hence the spin-disorder in the ferromagnetic metallic state. With increasing applied electric current to 2.0 mA, the magnitude of the photoinduced ΔR/ R is reduced to 3%, which may be attributed to current-induced ordering of the localized spins.
