The study of the manganese oxides, widely known as manganites, that exhibit the “colossal”
magnetoresistance effect is among the main areas of research within the area of strongly …

The fundamental physical properties of doped LaMnO 3, generically termed “manganites,”
and much of the underlying physics, were known more than 40 years ago. This article first …

Condensed matter is one of the most active areas of research in physics. Ev ery year new
materials are discovered with properties that are as challenging as or more than those of the …

Experimental data and their theoretical interpretation are presented for the colossal
magnetoresistance (CMR) materials to which conventional ferromagnetic semiconductors …

While basic features of polarons were well recognized a long time ago and have been
described in a number of review papers and textbooks, interest in the role of electron …

The structure of our material world is characterized by a large hierarchy of length scales that
determines material properties and functions. Increasing spatial resolution in optical imaging …

This is an informal paper that contains a list of'things we know'and'things we do not know'in
manganites and other compounds. It is adapted from the Conclusions chapter of a recent …

The perovskite manganites with generic formula RE 1− x AE x MnO 3 (RE= rare earth, AE=
Ca, Sr, Ba and Pb) have drawn considerable attention, especially following the discovery of …

Many unusual behaviors in complex oxides are deeply associated with the spontaneous
emergence of microscopic phase separation. Depending on the underlying mechanism, the …

The sensitivity of transport in colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) manganites to external
electric and magnetic fields is examined using field effect configurations with La 0.7 Ca 0.3 …
