摘要
The (La1-xSrx)(2)Mn3O7 compounds are layered materials that exhibit higher magneto-resistance than the corresponding 3D manganite perovskites. Quasi-elastic neutron scattering on a polycrystalline sample of La1.4Sr1.6Mn2O7 shows that the spin-fluctuation spectrum of these layered CMR materials is qualitatively similar to those found in the perovskite manganites (La, Ca)MnO3; their concentration, lifetime, and coherence length increase as T decreases to T-c. Unlike the perovskites, we find a lower spin-diffusion constant above T-c of similar to 5 meV Angstrom(2). (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
