摘要
We study the magnetic ground state in La2/3Ca1/3Mn1-xGaxO3 manganites, where a quantum critical point (QCP) has been theoretically predicted. The metallic ferromagnetic ground state for low Ga doping breaks down for x >= 0.11, an insulating state being established at low temperatures. Long-range ferromagnetism coexists with short-range magnetic correlations in the concentration range 0.11 <= x <= 0.145 while only the short-range correlations survive for x >= 0.16. We discuss the implications of such a QCP to the physics of manganites and compare to other QCP systems.
