The Hall effect at 0.9T C shows a clear contribution at H=0 due to the anomalous Hall effect [160] as well as a term linear in H. From this linear term, a carrier density of n = 0.85 holes/cell is calculated which is the same as that observed at 5 K (section 4.2.4), where no anomalous Hall effect was detected. The anomalous Hall effect apparently increases with temperature, which is quite unexpected since it is usually proportional to M [160]. Nevertheless, this has also been observed in the magnetic spinels such as CuCr 2 Se 4 [132-134]. At 1.1 T C the Hall effect has an
Magnetoconductivity in La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 3 electron-like slope at low fields that slowly reverses to hole-like in high fields. The low field slope can be attributed to the anomalous Hall effect resulting from the magnetization due to the Curie-Weiss susceptibility, χ: R hall = R A M + R H H = (χR A + R H )H. Thus while the sample magnetizes the Hall effect looks electron-like, but once the magnetization saturates, the Hall effect returns to hole-like. 6.3 Conclusion In summary, an accurate and simple model, based solely on symmetry without reference to any mechanism, is proposed for the magnetoresistance in La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 3 . One can also conclude from this model that the mechanism of the magnetotransport is best described by a magnetoconductance, and therefore mechanistic theories should predict at least a M 2 dependence of the conductivity. The functional form and estimate of parameters presented above should not only help guide the development of a mechanistic theory, but also provide a basis for predicting the magnetotransport properties when designing a device. In homogeneous materials, it is clear that the magnetoresistance maximizes near the ferromagnetic Curie temperature T C and rapidly decreases at lower or higher temperatures. The magnetoresistance also slowly saturates as the magnetic field is increased past several Tesla. Thus, the conductivity behaves much like the magnetization: above T C the conductivity and magnetization are low, while below T C the conductivity and magnetization rapidly increase. Furthermore, near T C both the conductivity and resistivity can be increased by an applied magnetic field. The theory of double exchange, which has been developed to explain these properties of the manganites [7, 112, 155], predicts this correlation between the conductivity and the magnetization. 127
