Abstract

To elucidate the nature of transport mechanism below Curie temperature T(C), we have analyzed the temperature dependence of resistivity (rho) and thermopower (S) of metallic La(1-x)Sr(x)CoO(3) (0.30 <= x <= 0.50). At low temperature well below T(C) both rho and S exhibit T(2) behavior whereas over a temperature interval just below T(C), they show a T(4) dependence due to the scattering of charge carriers by magnetic fluctuations. These fluctuations can be suppressed by a magnetic field, leading to a negative bulk magnetoresistance in cobaltates and in other itinerant ferromagnets such as manganites and CrO(2).
