Transport properties in La0.7-xGdxSr0.3MnO3 system

The influence of Gd doping at La-site on the electrical transport properties and the colossal magnetoresistance of La0.7-xGdxSr0.3MnO3 (x = 0.00, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40, 0.50, 0.60, and 0.70) is studied. The experimental results indicate that the transport properties exhibit abnormal behavior under high doping condition. For x = 0.50, we find that a transition from metal to insulator occurs after the occurrence of insulator-metal transition near Tc, which seldom occurs in ABO3 structure. For samples x = 0.60 and 0.70, it exhibits insulator behavior far above Tc. These abnormal behaviors are attributed to different magnetic background, i.e. the system undergoes a transition from long range ferromagnetic order to the cluster-spin glass state and further to antiferromagnetic order.     

Transport parameters of granular La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 films grown on an R-plane sapphire

Precisely (100)-oriented, 200-nm thick La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ films have been grown by laser ablation on a sapphire (R-plane) substrate covered by a (100)SrTiO₃/(001)Bi₂SrNb₂O₉/(001)CeO₂ trilayer buffer. The azimuthal misorientation of crystal grains (50–300 nm) in the La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ films decreased by about 40% as the condensation temperature was increased ered from 760 to 810° C. The lattice parameter of the grown manganate films was reduced to 3.81–3.82 Å by enriching them with oxygen. The maximum in the temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity of the La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ films grown was shifted toward lower temperatures by 20–50 K relative to its position for bulk ceramic samples of a stoichiometric composition. The largest magnetoresistance (MR=42% at H=0.4 T) was found in La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ films with a Mn⁴⁺ concentration on the order of 50% (T=166 K).     

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.     

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     

Transport and Magnetic Properties of Eu and Sr Doped Manganite Compound La0.7Ca0.3MnO3

The effect of simultaneous increase in carrier density and size-disorder on the transport and magnetic properties of La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ has been investigated by studying the (La_{0.7 − 2x} Eu _x )(Ca_0.3Sr _x )MnO₃ (0.05 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) (LECSMO) compounds. These compounds have been compared with standard La_{1 − x} Ca _x MnO₃ (0.3 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) (LCMO) in which carrier density alone varies. In LECSMO, the insulator-metal transition temperature (T _p) decreases from 180 K for x = 0.05 to 80 K for x = 0.15 sample vis-à-vis ∼240 K for x = 0.35 to ∼225 K for x = 0.45 in LCMO system. Similarly, the Curie temperature (T _C) in LECSMO, decreases from 205 K for x = 0.05 to 75 K for x = 0.2 sample against 240 K for x = 0.35 to ∼220 K for x = 0.45 in LCMO system. Also, in LCMO the T _C and T _p are coincident whereas, in LECSMO system, with increasing x there is an increasing disparity between the two. At 5 K, in the metallic region, a large MR (>90%) is observed in x = 0.15 sample and is discussed in terms of phase segregation and inter-grain magnetoresistance.     

Magneto-transport properties of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/SrTiO3/La0.7Ce0.3MnO3 tunnel junction

Hole-doped rare-earth manganite La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ and the electron-doped manganite La_0.7Ce_0.3MnO₃ both show a metal-insulator transition around 250 K associated with a ferromagnetic transition and colossal magnetoresistance. In an earlier publication we have reported the rectifying characteristic of La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃/SrTiO₃/La_0.7Ce_0.3MnO₃ tunnel junction at room temperature, showing that it is possible to fabricate a diode out of the polaronic insulator regime of doped manganites. Here we report the magneto-transport properties of such a tunnel junction above and below the metal-insulator transition. We show, from the large positive magnetoresistance of the tunnel junction at low temperature, that La_0.7Ce_0.3MnO₃ could be a minority spin carrier ferromagnet. The implication of this observation is discussed.     

Activation energy in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/YBa2Cu3O7-δ / La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 superconducting trilayers

Resistivity vs. temperature measurements on La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃/YBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ /La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ (LCMO/YBCO/LCMO) trilayers with different YBCO thickness, were performed in external magnetic field H up to 8 T. By evaluating the activation energy U from the slope of the resistivity Arrhenius plot, a strong depression of U has been observed when decreasing the YBCO layer thickness and the absolute U values appear to be reduced with respect to the values reported in literature in the case of YBCO thin films and YBCO/insulating multilayers. Moreover, a logarithmic U vs. H dependence is shown both in the case of thick and thin YBCO layers indicating the formation of a two dimensional vortex lattice. The experimental data are discussed considering the strong influence of the ferromagnetic LCMO on the superconducting YBCO properties which reduces the effective YBCO thickness more than predicted by the conventional theories.     

Structural and magnetic ordering in La0.6Ca0.4MnO3

The structural and magnetic ordering in La_0.6Ca_0.4MnO₃ has been studied by neutron powder diffraction as a function of temperature between 15 and 300 K. The para-ferromagnetic transition at T∼250 K is accompanied by significant structural distortions in the form of octahedral Mn–O₆ rotations. At 15 K, the total refined ferromagnetic moment on the Mn site was obtained as 3.1 μ_B, in reasonable agreement with the total expected average moment of mixed Mn³⁺/Mn⁴⁺ matrix.

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.

Temperature evolution of the cluster state in La0.8Ca0.2MnO3 and La0.8Ca0.2CoO3

The results of investigations of the transport and magnetic properties (ac linear and nonlinear (second- and third-order) susceptibilities) of La_0.8Ca_0.2MnO₃ and La_0.8Ca_0.2CoO₃ single crystals have been presented. It has been found that both compounds in the paramagnetic phase contain ferromagnetic clusters with close magnetic characteristics. At high temperatures, ferromagnetic clusters nucleate in preferred sites associated with chemical inhomogeneities. Cooling below a specific temperature is accompanied by homogeneous nucleation of clusters. These two stages are observed in both compounds. In the doped cobaltite, the coalescence of clusters begins to develop at the third stage, whereas in the manganite, their behavior changes due to the development of ferromagnetic ordering of the matrix. These features indicate that the cluster state in doped manganites and cobaltites has a common nature. The difference in the behavior of ferromagnetic clusters is a consequence of the magnetically active character of the matrix in the case of manganites and the neutral character of the matrix in the case of cobaltites.     

Enhanced magnetocaloric effect in Eu-doped La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 compounds

Orthorhombic La_0.7-xEu_xCa_0.3MnO₃ samples (x = 0.04–0.12) with apparent density of ρ = 3.9–4.1 g/cm³ prepared by solid-state reactions have been studied. The analysis of temperature-dependent magnetization for an applied field H = 500 Oe indicated a decrease of the Curie temperature (T_C) from about 225 K for x = 0.04 through 189 K for x = 0.08–146 K for x = 0.12. The magnetocaloric (MC) study upon analyzing M(H, T) data has revealed that the magnetic entropy change around T_C reaches the maximum (|ΔS_max|), which is dependent on both x and H. For an applied field interval of ΔH = 60 kOe, |ΔS_max| values are about 5.88, 4.93, and 4.71 J/kg⋅K for x = 0.04, 0.08, and 0.12, respectively. Though |ΔS_max| decreases with increasing x, relative cooling power (RCP) increases remarkably from 383 J/kg for x = 0.04 to about 428 J/kg for x = 0.08 and 0.12. This is related to the widening of the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition region when x increases. Particularly, if combining two compounds with x = 0.04 and 0.08 (or 0.12) as refrigerant blocks for MC applications, a cooling device can work in a large temperature range of 145–270 K, corresponding to RCP ≈ 640 J/kg for H = 60 kOe. M(H) analyses around T_C have proved x = 0.04 exhibiting the mixture of first- and second-order phase transitions while x = 0.08 and 0.12 exhibit a second-order nature. The obtained results show potential applications of Eu-doped La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ materials for magnetic refrigeration below room temperature.     

ESR study of magnetic structures in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3

Comprehensive measurements of electron spin resonance (ESR) and magnetization of La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ in the ferromagnetic as well as paramagnetic phases were carried out. Quantitative evidences for the inhomogeneous magnetic structure, consisting of ferromagnetic microregions embedded in the antiferromagnetic surrounding near T_c, were found. It is suggested that the microscopic local magnetic structures above and below T_c are qualitatively similar except that the phase below T_c carries long range order between the ferromagnetic microregions whose sizes grow with decreasing temperature.     

Evidence of ferrimagnetism in ferromagnetic La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 nanoparticle

The present paper shows that bulk La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO₃ (LCMN) sample of micron size particles is a typical ferromagnet and magnetic properties of LCMN samples with particle size in the nanometer scale are better described in the frame work of a ferrimagnetic structure. Detailed analysis of the temperature dependence of the inverse of paramagnetic susceptibility has confirmed the signature of ferrimagnetism in the nano-sized particles of LCMN. We have explained the observed ferrimagnetism as an effect of modified magnetic properties in the core–shell spin structure of LCMN particles, irrespective of the nanocrystalline and amorphous phase of the material.
