摘要
The incorporation of Sn into LaMnO3 perovskite and its influence on magnetotransport properties were studied in samples synthesized at low temperature. Single-phase materials for two series of samples with La/(Sn+Mn)=1 and La/ (Sn + Mn) < 1 ratios were obtained by substitution of up to 10% of the Mn ions by Sn4+. The effect of Sn substitution was monitored through measurements of thermal, "M(T)", and magnetic field, "M(H)", dependences of magnetization, as well as of resistivity, "rho(T)", at 0 and 70kOe. These showed that this effect depends strongly on the perovskite cation site ratio (A/B). For La/(Sn + Mn) = 1, M and T-C were depressed as Sn content was increased. The magnetization data suggest the presence of magnetic clusters with superparamagnetic behavior. No evidence of magnetoresistance (MR) was found. For La/ (Sn + Mn) < 1 ratio, the samples showed ferromagnetic behavior and MR and both M and TC raised as Sn content increased. The results are discussed in terms of A site vacancies.
