Abstract Manganese oxides (R, A) MnO 3 (R= La, Y, Bi or rare earth metal, A= non-trivalent
do** element) have been one focus of research for two outstanding properties:(i) …

Mixed-valence perovskite manganites (Re 1-x A x MnO 3 where Re= rare earth, A= alkaline
earth) provide a unique opportunity to study the relationships between the structure and the …

Abstract'Colossal magnetoresistance'in perovskite manganites such as La0. 7Ca0. 3MnO3
(LCMO), is caused by the interplay of ferro-paramagnetic, metal–insulator and structural …

Artificial multilayers offer unique opportunities for combining materials with antagonistic
orders such as superconductivity and ferromagnetism and thus to realize novel quantum …

We report a systematic study of< 100> epitaxial films of magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) of thickness
300–2000 Å, grown on single-crystal substrates (MgO, MgAl 2 O 4, and SrTiO 3) using …

Epitaxial La 0.7 Ca 0.3 MnO 3 (LCMO) thin films of a thickness∼ 170 nm were grown on
(001) LaAlO 3 (LAO) and (001) SrTiO 3 (STO) substrates by pulsed laser deposition …

Pulsed neutron-diffraction measurements were carried out on powder samples of La 1− x Sr
x MnO 3 (0<~ x<~ 0. 5) in order to study the local atomic structure of this system known for its …

Perovskite manganites are viewed as one of the key building blocks of oxide spintronics
devices due to their attractive physical properties. However, cation off‐stoichiometry at …

Most manganites exhibiting colossal magnetoresistant properties are structurally very
simple. They are based on a perosvskite structure with the general formula. The electric and …

The spontaneous formation of twins in La 2/3 Ca 1/3 MnO 3 films below TS∼ 105 K is
observed by a magneto-optical technique. The twins are revealed as stripes along the {110} …
