Abstract: The La2/3Ca1/3Mn1-xCuxO3 (0≤x<6%) samples were prepared by sol-gel method. Transport properties, conductive mechanism and low-field magnetoresistance (MR0) were investigated. It is found that conductive mechanism is described by Mott′s variable-range hopping and the MR0 near the insulator-metal transition temperature (Tp) increases from 2% to 80% with x from 0 to 4% for a low field of 0.3 T. The experiment also shows that the intergrain magnetoresistance is largely improved. The results indicate that a proper amount of Cu doping can substantially improve magnetoresistance effects.
