Clear and unambiguous bilayer splitting of the in-plane 3d$_{x^2-y^2}$ band, mapped throughout the Brillouin zone, and the full mapping of the 3d$_{3z^2-r^2}$ band are reported. Peculiar doping and temperature dependencies of these bands imply that as transition from the ferromagnetic metallic phase approaches, either as a function of doping or temperature, coherence along the c-axis between planes within the bilayer is lost, resulting in reduced interplane coupling. These results suggest that interplane coupling plays a large role in the CMR transition.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-12-23T20:19:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "75.47.Gk", "71.18.+y", "71.30.+h", "79.60.-i" ], "keywords": [ "bilayer manganites showing colossal magnetoresistance", "bilayer splitting", "c-axis coupling", "fermi level spectral weight topology", "ferromagnetic metallic phase approaches" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2009, "month": "Dec", "volume": 80, "number": 23, "pages": 235111 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..80w5111J" } } }
