Abstract

In this letter we report on the growth of thick films of magnetoresistive La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 films using a spray printing technique. The as-prepared films display a room-temperature magnetoresistance of 0.0012%/Oe in the 1 kOe field region. We will show that this field sensitivity is high enough to fabricate devices which, operated under a bias magnetic field, can be used as a sensitive and low-cost magnetic sensors.
