Directionally controlled superconductivity in La{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3}/YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7-{delta}}/La{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3} spin switches.
We report on the magnetic anisotropy controlled modulation of the superconductivity in La{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3}/YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7-{delta}}/La{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3} ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet hybrids with biaxial easy axes. The magnetoresistance (MR) is determined by the local misalignment of the magnetizations in the two layers and exhibits a positive MR plateau for antiparallel alignment along the easy axes and negative MR peaks at the coercive field near the hard axes. This evidences the importance of spin-dependent interfacial scattering effects (as opposed to stray fields) in the MR behavior of superconducting oxide inverse spin switches.
