Magnetoresistance and structural characterization of electrospun La1−Sr MnO3 nanowire network fabrics with x = 0.2

Nonwoven nanowire network fabrics of the material class La1−xSrxMnO3 (LSMO) with x = 0.2 were fabricated employing a sol-gel-process via electrospinning and a subsequent thermal treatment process based on thermal gravity analysis results. Investigations by means of scanning electron microscopy revealed an average diameter of the resulting nanowires of around 230 nm and a length of more than 100 μm. The chemical phases of the samples have been...
