Zh. Wang et al., Step magnetization and colossal magnetoresistance in spin glass manganitesLa0.67Ca0.33(Mn, Fe)O-3, ACT PHY C E, 48(4), 1999, pp. 757-762
The step magnetization is observed in spin glass manganites La0.67Ca0.33(Mn
, Fe)O-3, and the colossal magnetoresistance larger than 10(4) % (Delta R/R
-H) is obtained near the critical field. The micro-origin of the novel step
magnetism is attributed to the melting of antiferromagnetic clusters in th
e applied magnetic field.
