Abstract: | In a study of the infrared optical absorption spectra of polycrystalline La1−x
CaxMnO3 (0.1⩽x⩽0.8), a contribution from free charge carriers is observed below the Curie temperature for compositions with x⩽0.4. The existence of this contribution for samples with a high resistivity is a direct proof of the existence of “metallic”
drops in an insulating matrix. The relative volume of the “metallic” phase is estimated.
