ITR: Study of Complex Nanoclustered States using Novel Efficient Algorithms, Adriana Moreo and Elbio Dagotto, University of Tennessee, DMR0443144 • Manganites are materials that exhibit colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) and are used in many prototypical electronic devices. • An understanding of the CMR mechanism is crucial to guide devices design. • A novel algorithm has been implemented and applied to models for manganites, allowing access to previously unreachable system sizes. • PRB73, 224430(2006); Science 309, 257 (2005); PRB 73, 224441 (2006).
