Variation of thermoelectric power with crystallite size of La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 manganites

Thermoelectric power (TEP) studies of La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃ polycrystalline manganite material system having varying particle size have been undertaken. These materials were prepared by citrate based sol–gel route by sintering at four different temperatures and were later characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, electrical resistivity, AC susceptibility, etc., studies. The XRD data were analyzed by Rietveld refinement technique. Thermopower versus temperature plots are found to exhibit two peaks and an effort has been made to explain the significance of both of them. Finally, with a view to understand the conduction mechanism in these materials, TEP data in the low-temperature ferromagnetic metallic (T < T _P) regime were analyzed using electron–magnon scattering phenomenon, while that in the high-temperature insulating (T > T _P) region were analyzed by small polaron hopping model.     

Reflection of light from La0.67Ba0.33MnO3

The reflection spectra of La_0.67Ba_0.33MnO₃ ceramic samples prepared with different annealing times in oxygen are investigated. It is shown that conduction is implemented both by low-mobility carriers (polarons) and by comparatively mobile band-type carriers. Fiz. Tverd.

The Hall effect in La0.67Ba0.33MnO3

The Hall effect in polycrystalline barium-substituted lanthanum manganite La_0.67Ba_0.33MnO₃ has been investigated in the temperature interval 298<T<355 K. It is found that the anomalous Hall coefficient in this material is two orders of magnitude greater than the normal coefficient. At T ₀=333 K the normal Hall coefficient changes sign, which indicates a change in the type of conductivity. The temperature dependence of the normal Hall coefficient, electrical conductivity, and magnetoresistance is explained on the basis of the concept of motion of the mobility edge attendant as the temperature changes.

EPR investigation of nanosized La0.67Ca0.33MnO3−δ manganites

We report an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigation of the spin dynamics in the paramagnetic regime of nanosized La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO_3?δ manganites. The temperature dependences of the EPR line width and integral intensity have been analyzed in terms of the bottlenecked spin relaxation and small polaron hopping scenarios. The exchange coupling integral between Mn³⁺ and Mn⁴⁺ ions and the polaron activation energy decrease with the reduction of grain size. A discussion is given concerning the factors which could explain the observed changes.     

Prediction of thermomagnetic properties of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 and La0.67Sr0.33MnO3

The dependence of magnetization on the variation of temperature for La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ and La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃ perovskite-type ceramic materials under an external magnetic field was modelled. Application of phenomenological model was performed, showing a good agreement with the experimental data. Temperature dependence of change of both magnetic entropy and specific heat under magnetic field 0.05?T was predicted for La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ and La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃. Predicted values of maximum magnetic entropy change, full-width at half-maximum, relative cooling power and maximum specific heat under 0.05 T were evaluated.     

Study of Na substitution in La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 perovskites

The effect of Na substitution on nominal La_0.67Ba_0.33?x Na _x MnO₃ (0≤x≤0.33) manganites is studied in this work. Detailed chemical and structural analyses on ceramic samples obtained at 1200 ^°C show that a significantly lower Na rate than the nominal one is obtained due to important Na losses during the synthesis. The losses of Na result in the appearance of impurity phases for high nominal Na rates in addition to the manganite phase with a rhombohedral $R\bar{3}c$ structure. Structural and physical properties of the samples can be properly interpreted according to the variation of the Mn³⁺/Mn⁴⁺ ratio and the average ionic radius of A-site when the experimental composition of the manganite is considered.     

La0.67Ba0.33MnO3薄膜的激光辐照效应研究

利用脉冲激光沉积技术在LaAlO3(00l)单晶衬底上制备了La0.67Ba0.33MnO3薄膜,研究了CO2激光辐照对La0.67Ba0.33MnO3薄膜的微结构和磁电性能的影响.结果表明,经激光辐照后,La0.67Ba0.33MnO3薄膜的结晶性增强,薄膜应变减小;薄膜表面形貌由"岛状"结构变为"平原"结构,且粗糙度大大降低;同时,薄膜的饱和磁化强度、铁磁居里温度、金属-绝缘态转变温度和磁电阻增大,而矫顽场和电阻率减小.根据对传统退火效应的分析和理论计算,认为激光辐照导致的表面微结构的变化以及薄膜的氧含量和均匀性的提高对La0.67Ba0.33MnO3薄膜的磁电性能的改善与优化密切相关.     

Charge-carrier density collapse in La0.67Ca0.33MnO3and La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 epitaxial thin films

We measured the temperature dependence of the linear high field Hall resistivity of ( K) and ( K) thin films in the temperature range from 4 K up to 360 K in magnetic fields up to 20 T. At low temperatures we find a charge-carrier density of 1.3 and 1.4 holes per unit cell for the Ca- and Sr-doped compound, respectively. In this temperature range electron-magnon scattering contributes to the longitudinal resistivity. At the ferromagnetic transition temperature a dramatic drop in the number of charge-carriers n down to 0.6 holes per unit cell, accompanied by an increase in unit cell volume, is observed. Corrections of the Hall data due to a non saturated magnetic state will lead a more pronounced charge-carrier density collapse. Received 22 July 1999 and Received in final form 7 October 1999

Infrared Absorption of Phase Separated La0.67-xPrxCa0.33MnO3

Infrared absorption spectra of La0.67-xPrxCa0.33MnO3 （x= 0, 0.18 and 0.36） are experimentally studied in the temperature range 20 -300K. Absorption peak splitting corresponding to the stretching oscillation of the Mn-O bond, together with a shift of peak position, is observed below the Curie temperature. These features weaken and even disappear as the samples are warmed up to the Curie temperature, which indicates that this anomaly may be a result of phase separation in the compounds.

采用脉冲激光沉积法在倾斜LaAlO3衬底上制备了Ag掺杂的La0.67Pb0.33MnO3(LPMO)系列薄膜,发现该类薄膜中有激光感生热电电压(LITV)效应.随着掺Ag量x(x为Ag的质量与LPMO的质量之比)从0.00增加到0.10,LPMO薄膜中的LITV信号的响应时间先递减后递增,但始终小于未掺Ag的薄膜,掺Ag量x=0.06时响应时间最小.研究发现LPMO薄膜存在一个最佳厚度,在这一厚度下可使得LITV信号的峰值电压、响应时间分别达到最大和最小.与相同掺Ag量的La0.67Ca0.33MnO3薄膜相比,LPMO薄膜中的LITV信号有更小的响应时间.     

Hall effect in La0.67−x CexSr0.33MnO3

An experimental study of the Hall effect and of magnetoresistance in polycrystalline La_0.67−x Ce_xSr_0.33MnO₃ samples (x=0, 0.07) is reported. It is shown that the normal Hall coefficient reverses sign at T ₀=360 K in both samples and that metallic conduction occurs for T<T ₀, while for T>T ₀ the conduction is by mechanisms operative in disordered materials. It has been established that doping with cerium brings about an increase in the metallic phase of the normal and anomalous Hall coefficients. A qualitative interpretation of the observed features is given. Fiz. Tverd. Tela (St. Petersburg) 40, 2085–2088 (November 1998)     

Structure and magneto-transport parameters of partially relaxed and coherently grown La0.67Ba0.33MnO3 films

X-ray diffraction (XRD) and medium-energy ion scattering (MEIS) have been used to reveal distortions in the crystal lattice of La_0.67Ba_0.33MnO₃ (LBMO) films formed in relaxation of mechanical stresses. The LBMO films 25 nm thick have been prepared by laser deposition. The XRD and MEIS data obtained suggest that biaxially and mechanically elastically stressed LBMO layers grow coherently on LSATO substrates, whose crystal lattice parameter differs only weakly from the corresponding LBMO parameter, whereas in the bulk of manganite films grown on LaAlO₃ substrates, stresses relax partially. Stresses do not relax in the LBMO interface about 4 nm thick adjoining LaAlO₃. The electro- and magneto-transport parameters of partially relaxed LBMO films have been compared with those obtained for coherently grown manganite films with approximately the same tetragonal distortion of the lattice cell (a _⊥/a _‖ = 1.024–1.030; a _‖ and a _⊥ are the unit cell parameters in the substrate plane and normal to it, respectively). At temperatures substantially lower than the Curie temperature, the electrical resistivity ρ of LBMO films fits the relation ρ = ρ₀ + ρ₁ T ² + ρ₂(H)T ^4.5; the coefficients ρ₀ and ρ₁ do not depend on temperature T and magnetic field, and ρ₂ does not depend on temperature but almost linearly decreases with increasing magnetic field strength H. The coefficient ρ₂ for partially relaxed LBMO films is substantially larger than that for coherently grown manganite layers.     

Anomalous acoustoelectric effect in La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films

We have studied the acoustoelectric (AE) effect produced by surface acoustic waves (SAW) in a monolithic layered structure, composed of a piezodielectric LiNbO3 substrate and a La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 film. The experiments unexpectedly revealed in the longitudinal AE effect an anomalous contribution, invariant upon reversal of SAW propagation, which coexists with the ordinary (odd in wave vector) effect. The anomalous effect dominates near the metal-insulator transition, while the ordinary effect prevails at high and low temperatures. We show that the anomalous effect is caused by strong modulation of the film conductivity produced by the SAW elastic deformations.
