We report measurements of the temperature coefficient of the resistance (TCR) and the low-frequency noise of epitaxial La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) thin films deposited on SrTiO3 (STO) and (LaAlO3)0.3(Sr2AlTaO6)0.7 substrates. An x-ray-diffraction study showed that the films were (001) oriented. A normalized Hooge parameter of 9×10−31m3 was measured at 300K in the case of a 10‐μm-wide, 575‐μm-long line patterned in the 200‐nm-thick film grown on STO substrate. This value is among the lowest reported values for manganites and close to values measured in standard metals and semiconductors. The corresponding noise equivalent temperature (NET) was constant in the 300–340K range and equal to 6×10−7KHz−1∕2 at 10Hz and 150μA for a 10‐μm-wide, 575‐μm-long line patterned in a 200‐nm-thick LSMO film. This very low NET value is comparable to the best published results for manganites and was even found to be lower than the NET of other uncooled thermometers such as amorphous semiconductors, vanadium oxides, or semiconductin...
