摘要
The effect of Na doping and annealing time on the structure, electrical properties, magnetoresistance and thermopower properties has been investigated in perovskite La1-xNaxMnOy (x = 0.025, 0.075 and 0.1) systems. La1-xNaxMnOy crystallizes in a single-phase rhombohedral structure. It is observed a simultaneous occurrence of the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic state and metallic to insulating state. In the meanwhile, a large negative magnetoresistance with low applied magnetic field is observed. In addition, rho(T) curves for Na-doped samples exhibit another broad transition T-ms2 below T-ms. Such double peak behavior in the rho(T) curve interpreted by the electronic inhomogeneity in the samples. The sign of S changes from positive to negative depending on composition. The values of Seebeck coefficient are small (in the microvolt range). (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
