Resistivity Minimum Behavior and Weak Magnetic Disorder Characteristics in La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 Manganites

The correlation of low temperature resistivity minimum with magnetic properties was studied by a tuned action in applied magnetic fields for the optimal doping La_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃ manganite. It is proved that the low temperature minimum results from the existence of intrinsic spin disorder with a weak magnetic disorder characteristic caused from antiferromagnetism background and ferromagnetic ground state. The best fittings were made for the high field, accompanied by disappearing of Kondo term; the electronic resistivity follows only T ^1/2 dependence with a characteristic of enhanced e-e interactions and carrier localization. This e-e interaction at low and high fields would be a general characteristic and it reflects the strong correlated interaction between electrons in mixed-valent manganites.      

Structural Characterization and Magneto Electrical Behavior of Sm Doped La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 Manganites

The La_0.7?x Sm _x Ca_0.3MnO₃ with x=0.0 and 0.1 compounds were fabricated by compositional solid state reaction method and investigated for their structural and magnetoelectrical properties. The samples are characterized structurally by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. The electrical and magnetotransport properties of bulk samples have been investigated in the temperature range 5–300 K and a magnetic field up to 7 T. The metal–insulator transition temperature, T _MI, decreased with samarium (Sm) doping and also it is increased slightly with the application of magnetic field. The results of Sm doped LCMO compound showed that the maximum magneto resistance (MR) is about 54 % and it appears near the transition temperature.     

La0.67 Ca0.33 MnO3和La0.67 Ba0.33 MnO3中Dy的置换作用

在La0.67Ca0.33MnO3和La0.67Ba0.33MnO3中用Dy对La进行了置换研究。结果发现，随掺Dy量的增加，两类材料的居里温度和金属-绝缘体相变温度单调下降，峰值电阻率单调增加。在Ca系样品中，掺入13％的Dy后，在5T的磁场下，最大磁电阻比达到7900％。在Ba系样品中．掺Dy对磁电阻的影响要小得多。掺Dy对材料性质的影响可以用晶格效应来解释，但晶格效应产生的作用与碱土离子的品种有明显关系。     

Interpretation of Thermal Conductivity in the Ferromagnetic Metallic Phase of La0.83Sr0.17MnO3 Manganites: Scattering of Phonons and Magnons

The lattice contribution to the thermal conductivity (κ _ph) is theoretically analyzed within the framework of Kubo model in La_0.83Sr_0.17MnO₃ manganites. The theory is formulated when thermal conduction is limited by the scattering of phonons from defects, grain boundaries, charge carriers, and phonons. The lattice thermal conductivity dominates in La-Sr-MnO manganites and is artifact of strong phonon-impurity and -phonon scattering mechanism in the ferromagnetic metallic state. The electronic contribution to the thermal conductivity (κ _e) is estimated following Wiedemann-Franz law. This estimate sets an upper bound on κ _e, and in the vicinity of Curie temperature (T _c ) is about 1% of total heat transfer of manganites. Another important contribution in the metallic phase should come from spin waves (κ _m). It is noticed that κ _m increases with a T ² dependence on the temperature. These channels for heat transfer are algebraically added and κ _tot develops a broad peak at about 120 K, before falling off at lower temperatures. The behaviour of the thermal conductivity in manganites is determined by competition among the several operating scattering mechanisms for the heat carriers and a balance between electron, magnon, and phonon contributions. The numerical analysis of heat transfer in the ferromagnetic metallic phase of manganites shows similar results as those revealed from experiments.     

La0.67Sr0.33MnO3中Ag-Ti的掺杂效应

将La0.67Sr0.33MnO3（LSMO）、Ag2O及TiO2粉混合经高温烧结后制备了钙钛矿相/xAg两相复合体系（x是Ag与钙钛矿材料的物质的量比）,系统地研究了Ag-Ti的共掺杂对LSMO电性和磁电阻效应的影响.0.07摩尔比Ti4＋离子的B位掺杂使LSMO的居里温度降至室温.Ag的掺入对Tc影响不大,Tp逐渐升高.由于钙钛矿颗粒属性的改善和金属导电通道的出现,材料的电阻率明显下降.Ag掺杂使室温磁电阻得到显著增强,室温下从x=0.30样品中得到最大的磁电阻,约为32%,是La0.67Sr0.33MnO3样品的8倍,La0.67Sr0.33Mn0.93Ti0.07O3样品的1.6倍.     

Critical Behavior in the La0.6Ca0.4MnO3 Perovskite Manganite

Polycrystalline La_0.6Ca_0.4MnO₃ sample has been prepared by sol-gel method and has an orthorhombic perovskite structure with Pnma space group. Close to magnetic temperature transition, the order transition and the critical behavior are investigated by dc magnetization measurements. Using various techniques such as modified Arrott plots, Kouvel–Fisher method, and Widom scaling relation, the values of T _C ferromagnetic transition temperature, as well as the β, γ, and δ critical exponents, are estimated. The values of critical exponents, derived from the magnetic data, yield 0356 ≤ β ≤ 0382, 1273 ≤ γ ≤ 1291, and 4.37 ≤ δ ≤ 457. The critical exponents reported in this study obey the Widom scaling relation δ = 1 + γ/ β, implying that the obtained values of β and γ are reliable. We conclude that La_0.6Ca_0.4MnO₃ belongs to the 3D-Heisenberg class with short-range interaction.

Nb5+的掺杂引起La0.67Sr0.33MnO3增强的磁电阻效应

将Nb2O5掺杂到用溶胶-凝胶法制备的La0.67Sr0.33MnO3(LSMO)微粉中,XRD测量结果表明所有样品均为单相菱面结构.随着Nb5 掺杂量的增加,材料电阻率发生显著变化.在x=0.06的掺杂样品中得到最高为1110Ω·cm电阻率(x是掺入的Nb离子与母体材料的摩尔比),比LSMO高5个数量级,这是由于晶界处以及颗粒内部增加的自旋相关的散射和隧穿效应所致.Nb5 离子的掺杂使样品的低场磁电阻(LFMR)和高场磁电阻(HFMR)效应都有所增强.77K下,0.1和1T磁场下在x=0.07样品中分别得到25%和42%的磁电阻效应,分别是LSMO样品的2倍和1.7倍.室温下x=0.03样品的磁电阻最大,为7%.其中,LFMR来源于颗粒晶界处电子的自旋相关隧穿及散射作用,而HFMR来源于表面层的自旋非共线结构.     

庞磁电阻薄膜La0.7Ca0.3MnO3的制备和输运特性

用溶胶-凝胶法在LaAlO3衬底上制备了La0．7Ca0．3MnO3薄膜,研究了La0．7Ca0．3MnO3薄膜的结构和输运特性．结果表明：La0．7Ca0．3MnO3薄膜呈现畸变钙钛矿结构,具有好的外延性;在同一温度下,电阻在磁场作用下变小,在283K和88K分别出现了金属-绝缘体转变,产生了双极值现象,并且在双极值附近电阻变化最大;用连续激光作用薄膜时,同样出现了双极值现象,在同一温度下,电阻反而变大,在升温和降温过程中出现了明显的滞后行为．根据双交换和小极化子理论,这些现象与Mn离子的eg电子受激跃迁有关．     

Photo-Induced Effect of the Electron-Spin Resonance on the Charge-Ordered State in Pr0.65Ca0.35MnO3

Electron-spin resonance (ESR) for the charge-ordered state in well-characterized Pr_0.65Ca_0.35MnO₃ exhibited significant change of both the absorption profile and the effective spin susceptibility upon injection of laser light with photon energy of 1.17 eV provided by Nd-YAG laser. The increase of the effective spin susceptibility was clearly found out thanks to the injection of photons in the temperature range 90 K–80 K, which is below the transition temperature from the antiferromagnetic charge ordered state to the canted antiferromagnetic spin alternation state, T _CAF125 K. The temperature dependence of the change of the ESR profile excludes the possibility of heating by laser light. The present result suggests that a kind of photo-induced insulator–metal transition may occur due to propagation of the delocalized carriers via probable double exchange interaction in the charge-ordering collapsed state created by the injection of photons.     

宽温度稳定Ba0.80Sr0.20TiO3/Pb0.82La0.12TiO3复合厚膜的低温制备研究

Effect of Short-Range Ferromagnetic Ordering on the Electrical Transport Properties of (La0.9Bi0.1)2/3Ca1/3MnO3 in the Magnetic Field up to 40 T

The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the resistance of polycrystalline sample (La_0.9Bi_0.1)_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃ was investigated in pulsed high magnetic field up to 40 T over a wide temperature region. In order to describe the magnetotransport properties of the sample, an extended Mott hopping conduction model was employed. Instead of B _J (gμ _B J(T)B/k _B T) in the ferromagnetic (FM) state and $B_{J}^{2}(g\mu_{B}J(T)B/k_{B}T)$ in the paramagnetic (PM) state, the magnetic field dependence of the resistance could scale nicely with the Brillouin function B _J (gμ _B J(T)B/k _B T) in all the given temperatures (above and below the Curie temperature T _c ). The deduced value of the average spin moment J(T) increases with the increasing of the temperature and reaches the maximum value (～35) around T _c . The large value of J(T) indicate the presence of magnetic clusters in the sample which is induced by the short-range ferromagnetic ordering, however, compared to the un-doped compound La_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃, the value of J(T) is much smaller, which might be ascribe to the location of the 6s² lone pair electrons of Bi³⁺ ions in the sample (La_0.9Bi_0.1)_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃.     

不同气氛退火对多晶La0.9Ca0.1MnO3磁矩和比热的影响

对具有电脉冲诱发电阻可逆变化(EPIR)特性的多晶La0.9Ca0.1MnO3在相同条件下经氩气和氧气退火后样品的磁矩和比热进行了研究.实验结果表明,经氧气退火后的磁矩和比热分别比氩气退火后的磁矩和比热增大.对氧气退火后的比热和氩气退火后的比热做差处理后发现,两种气氛退火后的比热差与T3/2成线性关系.经氧气和氩气退火后的区别在于氧离子浓度的变化.经氧气退火后,氧离子浓度增加,导致样品中铁磁区域的增大,引起磁矩和比热增大.退火后磁矩和比热的变化与EPIR效应中磁矩和比热随电阻状态的变化趋势一致,表明EPIR效应与氧含量的变化有关.

La0.67Ba0.33MnO3中Cu掺杂对电特性和室温磁电阻的影响

在溶胶-凝胶法制备的La0.47Ba0.38MnO3(LBMO)微粉中掺入CuO粉,制成一系列(LBMO)／／(CuO),(x=0．01～0．1,为摩尔比)掺杂材料,实验结果发现．随着Cu掺杂量的增加,材料的磁化强度和居里温度变化不大,材料的电阻率先快速减小,而后缓慢增大,当x=0．01时在全温范围内电阻率都达到最小值,这与Cu离子的价态变化有关。实验还发现Cu离子的掺入可以使材料的室温磁电阻逐步提高．当掺入10%的Cu时,室温磁电阻比达到-8．4％。比未掺杂的LBMO提高了50％。低电阻率导电陶瓷材料和大的室温磁电阻效应都是应用研究所关注的课题。
