Abstract:The surface electronic structure of as-deposited and post-annealed La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) thin films on SrTiO3 (100) substrates has been studied by soft-X-ray spectroscopy. The crystal lattice reduces by post-annealing in air at 1100 C. The electrical resistivity also decreases by the postannealing. These thin films has the mixed valence states of Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ . The valence band near the Fermi level (EF) consists of the eg and t2g states of Mn 3d. The density of state at EF is higher in the post-annea… Show more
