dc.description.abstractOur cuprate-manganite ‘superconducting sandwich’ multilayers exhibit a highly unusual magnetic-field induced insulating-to-superconducting transition, contrary to the commonly held understanding that magnetic fields are detrimental to superconductivity. This new behaviour is a result of the specific magnetic and electronic properties of the manganite coupling with the cuprate (YBa2Cu3O7-δ, YBCO). Due to the specific manganite composition, Nd0.65(Ca0.7Sr0.3)0.35MnO3 (NCSMO), we hypothesize the behaviour to originate from CE-type antiferromagnetic ordering as well as charge and orbital ordering. Zero-field cooled polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) data in Fig 1(A) shows a sizable spin-flip (R+-) signal which may result from disordered ferromagnetic domains which sum to give a vanishing macroscopic magnetization. Initial elastic neutron scattering measurements performed on 100 nm thin film NCSMO display signatures of magnetic ordering (Fig 1(B)). Future neutron scattering measurements will look at the modification of magnetic order in a superlattice to better understand the relationship between NCSMO magnetization and our newly discovered insulating-to-superconducting transition.en_AU
