An electron paramagnetic resonance study of phase segregation in Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3

We present results of an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study of Nd_1−xSr_xMnO₃ with x=0.5 across the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic, insulator to metal transition at 260 K (T_c) and the antiferromagnetic, charge ordering transition (T_N=T_co) at 150 K. The results are compared with those on Nd_0.45Sr_0.55MnO₃ which undergoes a transition to a homogeneous A-type antiferromagnetic phase at T_N=230 K and on La_0.77Ca_0.23MnO₃ which undergoes a transition to coexisting ferromagnetic metallic and ferromagnetic insulating phases. For x=0.5, the EPR signals below T_c consist of two Lorentzian components attributable to the coexistence of two phases. From the analysis of the temperature dependence of the resonant fields and intensities, we conclude that in the mixed phase ferromagnetic and A-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases coexist. The x=0.55 compound shows a single Lorentzian throughout the temperature range. The signal persists for a few degrees below T_N. The behaviour of the A-type AFM phase is contrasted with that of the two ferromagnetic phases present in La_0.77Ca_0.23MnO₃. The comparison of behaviour of A-type AFM signal observed in both Nd_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ and Nd_0.45Sr_0.55MnO₃ with the two FM phases of La_0.77Ca_0.23MnO₃, vis-à-vis the shift of resonances with respect to the paramagnetic phases and the behaviour of EPR intensity as a function of temperature conclusively prove that the Nd_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ undergoes phase separation into A-type AFM and FM phases.     

Metal-insulator transition induced by a magnetic field in the compounds Eu0.7 A 0.3MnO3 (A=Ca, Sr)

The temperature R(T) and field R(H) dependences of the electrical resistance in the compound Eu_0.7 A _0.3MnO₃ (A=Ca, Sr) are investigated in the temperature range 4.2–200 K in magnetic fields up to 14 T. Above the antiferromagnetic transition temperature T _a, the function R(T) is semiconducting in character. Application of a magnetic field H that exceeds a certain critical value H _c changes the character of the function R(T) for Eu_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ to metallic (dR/dT>0). For T<T _a and H<H _c a jump in the resistance is observed indicating instability of the electronic state caused by competition between charge and spin ordering of the Mn ions of different valences.

Influence of annealing atmosphere on the properties of La0.5Sr0.5MnO3

The structure, magnetic and electrical transport properties of La_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ annealed in different atmosphere have been investigated. No evident change of structural symmetry and the Curie temperature is observed for the samples. The resistivity at zero magnetic field of the samples annealed in air and nitrogen exhibits a metal–insulator transition, while no metal–insulator transition is observed for the sample annealed in oxygen, and for which the resistivity decreases monotonously with increasing temperature. Surprisingly, when an external magnetic field is applied, a metal–insulator transition appears for the sample annealed in oxygen. It is suggested that the annealing atmosphere affects the competition between FM and AFM phases due to the change of Mn⁴⁺/Mn³⁺ ratio and the oxygen/cation vacancies, and has a great influence on the electrical transport properties of La_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃.     

Metamagnetic phase transitions induced by static and pulsed fields in (Sm0.5Gd0.5)0.55Sr0.45MnO3 ceramics

It has been found that the magnetic susceptibility of (Sm_0.5Gd_0.5)_0.55Sr_0.45MnO₃ ceramic samples in zero external magnetic field exhibits a sharp peak near the temperature of 48.5 K with a small temperature hysteresis that does not depend on the frequency of measurements and is characteristic of the phase transition to an antiferromagnetic state with a long-range charge orbital ordering, which is accompanied by an increase in the magnetic susceptibility with a decrease in the temperature. The magnetization isotherms in static and pulsed magnetic fields at temperatures below 60 K demonstrate the occurrence of an irreversible metamagnetic transition to a homogeneous ferromagnetic state with a critical transition field independent of the measurement temperature, which, apparently, is associated with the destruction of the insulating state with a long-range charge ordering. In the temperature range 60 K ?? T ?? 150 K, the ceramic samples undergo a magnetic-field-induced reversible phase transition to the ferromagnetic state, which is similar to the metamagnetic transition in the low-temperature phase and is caused by the destruction of local charge/orbital correlations. With an increase in the temperature, the critical transition fields increase almost linearly and the field hysteresis disappears. Near the critical fields of magnetic phase transitions, small ultra-narrow magnetization steps have been revealed in pulsed fields with a high rate of change in the magnetic field of ??400 kOe/??s.     

Electronic and vibrational Raman spectroscopy of Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 through the phase transitions

Raman scattering experiments have been carried out on single crystals of Nd_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ as a function of temperature in the range of 320–50 K, covering the paramagnetic insulator-ferromagnetic metal transition at 250 K and the charge-ordering antiferromagnetic transition at 150 K. The diffusive electronic Raman scattering response is seen in the paramagnetic phase which continue to exist even in the ferromagnetic phase, eventually disappearing below 150 K. We understand the existence of diffusive response in the ferromagnetic phase to the coexistence of the different electronic phases. The frequency and linewidth of the phonons across the transitions show significant changes, which cannot be accounted for only by anharmonic interactions.

Effect of isotopic composition and microstructure on the crystalline and magnetic phase states in R0.5Sr0.5MnO3

The results of structural neutron experiments on determining crystal and magnetic phase states of perovskite-like manganites R_0.5Sr_0.5MnO₃ (R = ¹⁵²Sm, Nd_0.772Tb_0.228, and Nd_0.544Tb_0.456) are reported. Experiments are carried out for revealing microscopic factors responsible for the giant oxygen isotope effect that was discovered recently in Sm_1?x Sr _x MnO₃ for x ≈ 0.5. It is shown that separation into two crystal phases P ₁ and P ₂ with the same spatial symmetry but different types of Jahn-Teller distortions in MnO₆ octahedra and magnetic ordering of Mn atoms takes place in all studied compounds at low temperatures. Structural analysis has been carried out successfully owing to exceptionally large differences in the unit cell parameters of the coexisting phases. The P ₁ phase is ferromagnetic and MnO₆ octahedra are distorted only slightly. The P ₂ phase is antiferromagnetic (A-type ordering) and MnO₆ octahedra are strongly compressed in the apical direction. The relative volumes occupied by the P ₁ and P ₂ phases depend on the mean radius of the A cation, and the replacement of ¹⁶O by ¹⁸O results in their redistribution in favor of the P ₂ phase. The results unambiguously point to the percolation nature of the metal-insulator transition in a Sm-containing compound upon isotopic substitution of oxygen due to a sharp decrease (from 65 to 13%) in the fraction of ferromagnetic phase P ₁. In all investigated compounds, the ordered magnetic moment of manganese Mn in the P ₁ and P ₂ phases varies from 1.7μ_B to 3.5μ_B. The data on the evolution of the miscrostructure parameters during a phase transition to the stratified state indicate that the initial spread in the A cation radii, as well as the internal microstrains, produce a critical effect on the formation of mesoscopic phase separation.
