Abstract
Here, equal numbers of La and Mn ions are successfully introduced simultaneously in SrRuO3. With increasing La/Mn doping, all compositions crystallize in Pnma with the lattice constant, together with the RuO6 octahedral distortion, decreases. Ferromagnetism-to-spin glass magnetic behavior is observed at x ≥ 0.23. A metal–insulator transition (MIT) occurs at lower temperatures, resulting from the disordering of the metal mixture in the lattice. The retraction of the RuO6 octahedron increases the overlap of the Ru t2g–O 2p orbitals and broadens the Ru 4d bandwidth, leading to weaker electron–electron interactions, which may decrease the electronic and thermal conductivity.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism serves as the international forum for the most current research and ideas in these fields. This highly acclaimed journal publishes peer-reviewed original papers, conference proceedings and invited review articles that examine all aspects of the science and technology of superconductivity, including new materials, new mechanisms, basic and technological properties, new phenomena, and small- and large-scale applications. Novel magnetism, which is expanding rapidly, is also featured in the journal. The journal focuses on such areas as spintronics, magnetic semiconductors, properties of magnetic multilayers, magnetoresistive materials and structures, magnetic oxides, etc. Novel superconducting and magnetic materials are complex compounds, and the journal publishes articles related to all aspects their study, such as sample preparation, spectroscopy and transport properties as well as various applications.
