La_(0.4)Ca_(0.6)MnO_3中Mn-位Fe和Cr掺杂对磁性质的影响

研究了Fe和Cr掺杂对La0.4Ca0.6Mn O3中电荷有序反铁磁基态的调控作用.磁性质的测量结果表明,两种离子掺杂均能有效抑制原型样品中的长程电荷有序相,但是Fe离子掺杂样品均具有反铁磁的基态,而Cr掺杂样品中则出现了显著的铁磁性.结合电输运测量结果显示,Cr掺杂引起的铁磁态同时具有金属性,表明其中是电子双交换作用占主导.对比两种掺杂离子的电子结构发现,Cr离子空的e g电子轨道促进了电子双交换作用,而Fe掺杂则只是引入了不同的自旋交换作用,导致自旋无序.

La0.5(Ca,Sr)0.5MnO3中各种有序相电子结构和磁性的研究

在低温条件下,随着搀杂浓度的增加,La1-X(Ca,Sr)xMnO3材料在x＝0.5时会发生由铁磁态向反铁磁态绝缘体的相变过程.X-射线和中子衍射实验的研究进一步表明,在x＝0.5时由于自旋、电荷和轨道序的相互作用,形成了La1-x(Ca,Sr)xMnO3材料的Charge-Exchange(CE)型反铁磁结构,因此出现了一些反常的磁学性质.本文对La0.5(Ca,Sr)0.5MnO3材料各种有序相进行了深入的研究.以多带Hubbard模型为基础,我们运用平均场近似和实空间Recursion方法,计算了La0.5(Ca,Sr)0.5MnO3材料中各种轨道序的铁磁态,G-型反铁磁态和CE型反铁磁态的态密度和能量.通过对不同状态之间能量的比较,得出在La0.5(Ca,Sr)0.5MnO3材料中CE-型反铁磁态将是系统最稳定状态的结论.同时对CE-型反铁磁态密度的分析,可以看出由于赝能隙的产生,系统将逐渐向绝缘体转变这一趋势.所有这些结论都和中子衍射和X-射线衍射的实验结果相符合.

钙钛矿锰氧化物(La_(1-x)Eu_x)_(4/3)Sr_(5/3)Mn_2O_7(x=0,0.15)的磁性和电性研究

通过传统固相反应法制备了钙钛矿锰氧化物(La1-xEux)4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7(x=0,0.15)多晶样品,并且对其磁性和电性进行了研究.磁性测量表明:随着温度的降低,样品经历了一个复杂的转变过程,在温度为T*时经历二维短程铁磁有序转变,在温度为TC时进入三维长程铁磁态.随着Eu的掺杂,T*和TC减小,并且样品(La0.85Eu0.15)4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7在低温区表现出自旋玻璃行为.电性质测量表明:在母体La4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7中La位掺杂Eu后电阻率明显变大,金属绝缘转变温度TMI降低,磁电阻峰值增大.这些影响归因于较小的Eu3+离子替代La3+离子导致平均离子半径减小,晶格发生畸变.此外,较小的Eu3+离子优先占据层间岩盐层的R-site,使La3+,Sr3+,Eu3+离子在(La0.85Eu0.15)4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7中的分布更加有序,所以x=0.15的样品的ρ-T曲线只有一个峰.     

THE STRUCTURE AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF La2-2xSr1Ca2xMn2O7 (x=0.25－1.00)

In this paper, the effect of divalent cation substitution on the structure and magnetic properties in La_2-2xSr₁Ca_2xMn₂O₇ have been investigated systematically using bulk samples with a wide doping concentration range 0.25≤x≤1.00. Replacing trivalent La ions by divalent Ca ions results in the weakening and then disappearance of the long-range ferromagnetic (FM) ordering, the formation of spin canting, antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering and low-temperature spin-glass. These results show that increasing the hole-doping concentration significantly suppresses the FM state. We suggest that this variation of magnetic properties is related to the competition of the FM and AFM interactions resulting from the change of Mn³⁺/Mn⁴⁺ ratio and Jahn-Teller-type lattice distortion of MnO₆ octahedra due to the introduction of Ca²⁺ ions.     

Magnetic ordering and magnetoresistive effect in La1−x Srx(Mn1−y Mey)O3 perovskites (Me = Nb, Mg)

Perovskites of composition La_1?x Sr_x(Mn_1?x/2Nb _x/2)O₃ and La_0.49Sr_0.51(Mn_1?y Nb_y)O₃ have been synthesized and investigated. The substitution of nonmagnetic niobium ions for manganese was shown to lead to a transition from the metallic into the insulating state due to a decrease in the number of dissimilar (different-valence) manganese atoms in the lattice. In spite of the high resistivity, the niobium-containing perovskites exhibit a large magnetoresistive effect and ferromagnetic ordering. Small additions of Nb⁵⁺ to La_0.49Sr_0.51MnO₃ stimulate the transition from the antiferromagnetic into the ferromagnetic state, whereas the substitution of Mg²⁺ for Mn stabilizes the antiferromagnetic state. It is supposed that the ferromagnetism in the insulating perovskites at hand is due to the positive superexchange of the Mn³⁺-O-Mn³⁺ type, and the magnetoresistive effect owes to the intergranular transfer of spin-polarized charge carriers and the suppression of magnetic nonuniformities by an applied magnetic field near T _C.     

Suppression of charge ordering and thermal hysteresis of electronic transport and magnetisation in La0.5Ca0.5Mn1−xNixO3

A series of polycrystalline La_0.5Ca_0.5Mn_1?xNi_xO₃ (x = 0.00, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, 0.100 and 0.125) was synthesised using solid state reaction. Measurements in a cooling and warming cycle between 300 and 80 K were carried out to study the Ni-doping effects on the electrical resistivity, thermopower and magnetisation of single-phase La_0.5Ca_0.5Mn_1?xNi_xO₃. Partial substitution of Ni for Mn leads to the suppression of charge ordering state, the evidence of which is shown by the dramatic decrease in electrical resistivity and thermal hysteresis width in electrical resistivity, thermopower and magnetisation. However, the magnitude of both electrical resistivity and thermopower increases with increasing Ni content. This can be attributed to an increase in the Mn⁴⁺ concentration, which favours the antiferromagnetic state and leads to a gradual disappearance of ferromagnetic double exchange interaction. Besides, the metal–nonmetal transition temperature decreases with increasing Ni content until x = 0.075, which might arise from increased electron–phonon coupling due to less ordered spins at temperatures above ferromagnetic transition. For samples with x greater than 0.075, no metal–nonmetal transition is observed due to the suppression of double exchange mechanism.     

Spin-glass like behaviors in La<Subscript>1−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Tb<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>MnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> perovskite

A series of samples of La_1−x Tb _x MnO₃ (0⩽x⩽0.15) are prepared. The static and dynamic magnetizations of La_1−x Tb _x MnO₃ have been investigated. The results indicate that the spins with the short-range order are frozen into random direction at low enough temperatures which leads to the samples exhibiting the spin-glass like behavior. It is considered that the spin-glass like behavior originates from the competition between ferromagnetic double exchange among Mn³⁺ and Mn²⁺ and antiferromagnetic superexchange among Mn³⁺ and Mn³⁺, as well as Tb³⁺ and Tb³⁺.     

Magnetic interaction in Mg, Ti, Nb doped manganites

An effect of Mn substitution with Me=Mg²⁺, Ti⁴⁺, Nb⁵⁺ in manganites has been investigated by preparing La_0.7Sr_0.3(Mn_1-xMe_x)O₃ and La_1-xSr_x(Mn_{1 - x/2}Nb_x/2)O₃ series. It was established that substitution of manganese with magnesium up to x = 0.16 leads to a collapse of a long-range ferromagnetic order whereas La_0.7Sr_0.3(Mn ^{3 +} _0.85Nb ^{5 +} _0.15)O₃ is ferromagnet with T _C = 123 K and exhibits a large magnetoresistance below Curie point despite an absence of four-valent manganese. Hypothetical magnetic phase diagrams are constructed for La_0.7Sr_0.3(Mn_1-xMe_x)O₃ and La_1-xSr_x(Mn_{1 - x/2}Nb_x/2)O₃. Our results show that Mn³⁺-O-Mn³⁺ exchange interaction is ferromagnetic in the orbitally disordered manganites as well as an increase of Mn⁴⁺ content above 50% from a total amount of manganese ions leads to formation of a spin glass state due to a competition between antiferromagnetic Mn⁴⁺-O-Mn⁴⁺ and ferromagnetic Mn³⁺-O-Mn⁴⁺(Mn³⁺) superexchange interactions.

Magnetic phase diagram of the Bi<Subscript>1-<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Ca<Subscript>x</Subscript>MnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> manganites

The magnetic and elastic properties of the Bi_1-xCa_xMnO₃ manganites are studied. The phase transformations revealed are ferromagnet-spin glass (x≥0.15) and spin glass-charge-ordered antiferromagnet (x≥0.25). The ferromagnetic state is characterized by ordering of the Mn³⁺d _x ²-y orbitals. It is suggested that thespin glass state originates from local static Jahn-Teller distortions. The antiferromagnetic charge-ordered and the spin-glass disordered phases coexist in samples with 0.25<x<0.32, which may be due to the charge order-disorder phase transformation being martensitic in character. The magnetic phase diagram is constructed.     

Magnetic and ferroelectric properties of exchange-frustrated multiferroics (Ni1 ? xTx)3V2O8 (T = Co, Mn, Zn)

The effect of the substitution of Co²⁺, Mn²⁺, and Zn²⁺ ions for Ni²⁺ ions on the magnetic, dielectric, and ferroelectric properties of vanadate single crystals (Ni_{1 − x} T _x )₃V₂O₈ has been analyzed. It has been found that the low-level (x ≤ 0.1) substitution of both magnetic and nonmagnetic ions stabilizes the ferroelectric state with a cycloidal magnetic structure. The existence region of this state is expanded to low temperatures down to 3 K for Zn²⁺ and below 1.8 K for Co²⁺ and Mn²⁺ owing to the suppression of a low-temperature weak ferromagnetic phase. At the same time, the ferroelectric phase disappears completely at large concentrations of Co and Mn. The effect of magnetic fields on the magnetic and ferroelectric states has been analyzed. It has been shown that the magnetic field along the c axis suppresses the ferroelectric state, whereas the magnetization along the antiferromagnetism axis (a axis) induces the reentrant phase transition from a paraelectric weak ferromagnetic structure to a ferroelectric structure. The corresponding H-T phase diagrams have been drawn.     

Crystal structure and magnetic state of the LaMn1−x VxO3 perovskites

The crystal structure and the magnetic state of polycrystalline LaMn_1?x V_xO₃ (0.1<x<0.9) compounds have been studied by x-ray and neutron diffraction methods, as well as by magnetization and ac susceptibility measurements. It is shown that substitution of vanadium for manganese ions leaves the orthorhombic crystal structure of the compounds (space group Pnma) unchanged. The magnetic structure is observed to change from a canted antiferromagnetic ordering (wavevector k=[0, 0, 0], with the antiferromagnetic moments aligned with the a axis and the ferromagnetic component of the magnetic moment parallel to the b axis) at vanadium concentrations x<0.4 to a collinear antiferromagnetic ordering (with the magnetic moments parallel to the b axis) at x>0.8; at this transition occurs through an intermediate state exhibiting spin-glass properties.     

Magnetic and transport properties of bilayered manganites La1.2Sr1.8Mn2-xGaxO7（x=0,0.08）

The magnetic and electrical properties of nonmagnetic Ga +3 ion substitution for Mn site are investigated in the bilayer manganite La 1.2 Sr 1.8 Mn 2 O 7.When the Mn is substituted by Ga,the ferromagnetic property obviously weakens,the magnetic transition temperature decreases and a spin-glass behaviour occurs at low temperature.Meanwhile,doping causes the resistivity to dramatically increase,the metal-insulator transition temperature to disappear,and a greater magneto-resistance effect to occur at low temperature.These effects result from the fact that Ga substitution dilutes the magnetic active Mn-O-Mn network and weakens the double exchange interaction,and further suppresses ferromagnetic ordering and metallic conduction.     

Magnetic properties of Mn-doped GaN with defects: ab-initio calculations

According to first-principles density functional calculations,we have investigated the magnetic properties of Mn-doped GaN with defects,Ga 1-x-y V Gx Mn y N 1-z-t V Nz O t with Mn substituted at Ga sites,nitrogen vacancies V N,gallium vacancies V G and oxygen substituted at nitrogen sites.The magnetic interaction in Mn-doped GaN favours the ferromagnetic coupling via the double exchange mechanism.The ground state is found to be well described by a model based on a Mn 3+-d 5 in a high spin state coupled via a double exchange to a partially delocalized hole accommodated in the 2p states of neighbouring nitrogen ions.The effect of defects on ferromagnetic coupling is investigated.It is found that in the presence of donor defects,such as oxygen substituted at nitrogen sites,nitrogen vacancy antiferromagnetic interactions appear,while in the case of Ga vacancies,the interactions remain ferromagnetic;in the case of acceptor defects like Mg and Zn codoping,ferromagnetism is stabilized.The formation energies of these defects are computed.Furthermore,the half-metallic behaviours appear in some studied compounds.
