Electrical resistivity anomaly in (Pr1−yMy)1−xCaxCoO3 epitaxial films (M=Y, Gd) fabricated by pulsed laser deposition

(Pr1−yMy)1−xCaxCoO3 epitaxial films (M=Y, Gd) have been successfully fabricated by pulsed laser deposition on the single crystal substrates with different lattice constant. The polycrystalline bulk of this material shows a first-order metal-insulator (MI) transition below the critical temperature. A...
