Self-interference of charge carriers in ferromagnetic SrRuO3

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
We report a systematic study of the low-temperature electrical conductivity in a series of SrRuO3 epitaxial thin films. At relatively high temperature the films display the conventional metallic behavior. However, a well-defined resistivity minimum appears at low temperature. This temperature dependence can be well described in a weak localization scenario: the resistivity minimum arising from the competition of electronic self-interference effects and the normal metallic character. By appropriate selection of the film growth conditions, we have been able to modify the mean-free path of itinerant carriers and thus to tune the relative strength of the quantum effects. We show that data can be quantitatively described by available theoretical models.
