Book Competing Interactions in Doped Manganites

Download or read book Competing Interactions in Doped Manganites written by Wiqar Hussain Shah and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magnetic and transport properties of the doped manganites colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) compounds with the perovskite structure are mainly characterized by a competition between ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism, and between a metallic and insulator behavior. The effects of the magnetic and transport measurements of the CMR compound have been investigated by different DC and AC techniques. The magnetic and transport behavior of La1-xCaxMnO3+ (x=0.48, 0.50, 0.52 and 0.55 and =0.015) compositions close to charge ordering, was studied through resistivity DC magnetization and AC susceptibility measurements. With time and thermal cycling (T>300 K) there is an irreversible transformation of the low-temperature phase from a partially ferromagnetic and metallic to one that is less ferromagnetic and highly resistive. For instance, an increase of resistivity can be observed by thermal cycling, where no effect is obtained for lower Ca concentration. The time changes in the magnetization are logarithmic in general and activation energies are consistent with those expected for electron transfer between Mn ions."

Thorpe, Series Editor E mail: thorpe@pa. msu. edu V PREFACE This book records invited lectures given at the workshop on Physics of Manganites, held at Michigan State University, July 26 29, 1998. Doped manganites are an interesting class of compounds that show both metal insulator and ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transitions at the same temperature. This was discovered in the early 1950s by Jonker and van Santen and basic theoretical ideas were developed by Zener (1951), Anderson and Hasegawa (1955), and deGennes (1960) to explain these transitions and related interesting observations.

  • Pages : 731 pages

Download or read book Functional Materials written by S. Banerjee and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-12-09 with total page 731 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional materials have assumed a very prominent position in several high-tech areas. Such materials are not being classified on the basis of their origin, nature of bonding or processing techniques but are classified on the basis of the functions they can perform. This is a significant departure from the earlier schemes in which materials were described as metals, alloys, ceramics, polymers, glass materials etc. Several new processing techniques have also evolved in the recent past. Because of the diversity of materials and their functions it has become extremely difficult to obtain information from single source. Functional Materials: Preparation, Processing and Applications provides a comprehensive review of the latest developments. Serves as a ready reference for Chemistry, Physics and Materials Science researchers by covering a wide range of functional materials in one book Aids in the design of new materials by emphasizing structure or microstructure – property correlation Covers the processing of functional materials in detail, which helps in conceptualizing the applications of them

Book Colossal Magnetoresistive Manganites

Download or read book Colossal Magnetoresistive Manganites written by Tapan Chatterji and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physics of transition metal oxides has become a central topic of interest to condensed-matter scientists ever since high temperature superconductivity was discovered in hole-doped cuprates with perovskite-like structures. Although the renewed interest in hole-doped perovskite manganites following the discovery of their colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) properties, began in 1993 about a decade after the discovery of high temperature superconductivity, their first investigation started as early as 1950 and basic theoretical ideas were developed during 1951-1960. Experience in sample preparation and characterization, and in growth of single crystals and epitaxial thin films, gained during the research on high temperature superconductors, and the development of theoretical tools, were very efficiently used in research on CMR manganites. In early nineties it appeared to many condensed matter physicists that although the problem of high temperature superconductivity is a difficult one to solve, a quantitative understanding of CMR phenomena might be well within reach. This book is intended to be an account of the latest developments in the phys ics of CMR manganites. When I planned this book back in 2000, I thought that research on the physics of CMR manganites would be more or less consolidated by the time this would be published. I was obviously very optimistic indeed. We are now in 2003 and we still do not have a quantitative understanding of the central CMR effect. Meanwhile the field has expanded. It is still a very active field of research on both the experimental and theoretical fronts.

Book Magnetocaloric Effect in Perovskite Manganites

Download or read book Magnetocaloric Effect in Perovskite Manganites written by H. Gencer and published by Materials Research Forum LLC. This book was released on 2020-08-15 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For environmental concerns, it is highly desirable to replace gas-based refrigeration by magnetic refrigeration. Magnetic refrigeration has significant advantages such as small volume, chemical stability, low cost, non-toxicity and not causing sound pollution. Among the pertinent magnetocaloric materials, perovskite manganites are of special interest because they exhibit extremely large magnetic entropy and adiabatic temperature variations, a small thermal or magnetic hysteresis, high chemical stability. Further, the Curie temperature and saturation magnetization can be tailored by changing doping element and doping concentrations. The book references 289 original resources and includes their direct web link for in-depth reading. Keywords: Magnetic Refrigeration, Magnetocaloric Effect, Perovskite Manganites, Perovskite Structure, Magnetic Entropy, Magnetic Hysteresis, Thermal Hysteresis, Chemical Stability, Curie Temperature, Saturation Magnetization, Lanthanides.

Book Colossal Magnetoresistance  Charge Ordering and Related Properties of Manganese Oxides

Download or read book Colossal Magnetoresistance Charge Ordering and Related Properties of Manganese Oxides written by Chintamani Nagesa Ramachandra Rao and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal oxides constitute one of the most amazing classes of materials with a wide range of properties. They exhibit a variety of phenomena, such as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism and superconductivity. A new aspect of metal oxides -- colossal magnetoresistance exhibited by certain manganese oxides, in particular rare earth manganates of perovskite structure -- has received much attention in the last four years. Some of these oxides show 100% magnetoresistance and have much potential for technological applications. Previously this phenomenon was found only in layered and granular metallic materials. Studies of colossal magnetoresistance have led to the discovery of many other new phenomena and properties such as charge ordering and orbital ordering. In view of the importance of colossal magnetoresistance, charge ordering and related phenomena exhibited by oxides to the physics and chemistry of solid materials, it is necessary and timely to have a book dealing with these topics. This book begins with a review of the subject followed by contributions from a number of experts which cover the present status of the subject.
