On the origin of magnetoresistance in Sr2_2FeMoO6_6

We report detailed magnetization ($M$) and magnetoresistance ($MR$) studies on a series of Sr$_2$FeMoO$_6$ samples with independent control on anti-site defect and grain boundary densities. These results, exhibiting a switching-like behavior of $MR$ with $M$, establish that the $MR$ is controlled by the magnetic polarization of grain boundary regions, rather than of the grains within a resonant tunnelling mechanism.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Correlation induced phonon softening in low density coupled bilayer systems

We predict a possible phonon softening instability in strongly correlated coupled semiconductor bilayer systems. By studying the plasmon-phonon coupling in coupled bilayer structures, we find that the renormalized acoustic phonon frequency may be softened at a finite wave vector due to many-body local field corrections, particularly in low density systems where correlation effects are strong. We discuss experimental possibilities to search for this predicted phonon softening phenomenon.Comment: 4 pages with 2 figure
