Yang, Z.Q. (author), Zhang, Y.Q. (author), Aarts, J. (author), Wu, M.Y. (author), Zandbergen, H.W. (author)We report the effects of biaxial strain on the charge ordering temperature Tco of the mixed-valent manganite perovskite oxide Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3. Thin films were grown on SrTiO3, which has a 1.3% larger in-plane lattice parameter. Other substrates were used for comparison. Transport measurements combined with data from electron microscopy show that...journal article 2006
