The measurement result of V-LCMO compounds shows that the maximum magnetoresistance(MR) is about 220% at TIM=268 K and La-vacancy content x=0.04. For V-LYCMO compounds, there exists metal-insulator transition at about 50 K, and a very large MR (over 106%) is observed at the temperature ranging from 40 K to 50 K.展开更多
