摘要:

我们报告详细的结构,电,磁和比热的研究La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xCrxO 3锰氧化物。Rietveld分析拟合和观察到的XRD图案表现出单相性质的所有研究的材料,在Pbnm空间群结晶。Cr在Mn位的连续取代使La_(0.7)Ca_(0.3)Mn_(1-x)Cr_xO_3锰氧化物的电阻率增加,并使母体化合物的特征绝缘体-金属转变温度(TIM)降低,同时使Cr含量较高的样品具有驼峰状特征。驼峰结构基本上表示的反铁磁(AFM)相互作用的发病推断的磁性和红外(IR)光谱研究。FM态的系统抑制导致类似自旋玻璃(SG)的行为。红外光谱研究表明,在413 cm-1的振动模式与内部弯曲的MnO 6八面体,变得更软,表明在扭曲的增加,因此可能的自旋玻璃的行为。临界指数α、β和γ由TIM/TFM附近的热容(CP)数据计算。同样表现出的变化,其值与掺杂。特别地,β的值从0.37增加到0.43,清楚地指示长范围磁序和短范围磁序两者的共存,即对于Cr掺杂的样品朝向SG状态的趋势。在此基础上,提出Cr通过Cr ~(3+)/Mn ~(4+)离子稀释了基于双交换作用(DE)的FM,而促进了基于AFM的超交换作用(SE)。Cr的取代系统地破坏了金属态和长程铁磁(FM)秩序。

英文摘要:

We report detailed structural, electrical, magnetic and specific heat studies on La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xCrxO3 manganites. Rietveld analysis of fitted and observed XRD patterns exhibited the single-phase nature of all the studied materials, which crystallize in Pbnm space group. Successive substitution of Cr at Mn site in La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xCrxO3 manganites increases the electrical resistivity and decrease the characteristic insulator-metal transition temperature (TIM) of the parent compound along with a hump like feature for higher Cr-content samples. The hump structure basically signifies the onset of anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) interactions as inferred by both the magnetic and infra-red (IR) spectroscopy studies. The systematic suppression of FM state results in a spin glass (SG) like behavior. IR studies revealed that the vibration mode at 413 cm-1 being associated with internal bending of MnO6 octehedra, becomes softer, indicating an increase in distortion and hence the possible spin glass behavior. The critical exponents alpha, beta and gama are calculated from the heat capacity (CP) data near the TIM/TFM. The same exhibited variations of their values with doping. In particular the value of beta increases from 0.37 to 0.43, clearly indicating the coexistence of both long and short range magnetic orders i.e. tendency towards SG state for Cr doped samples. On the basis of present results, it is suggested that Cr dilutes double-exchange (DE) based FM and rather promotes the AFM based super exchange interactions (SE) via Cr3+/Mn4+ ions. Substitution of Cr systematically destroys both the metallic state and long range ferromagnetic (FM) order.
