The absorption edge of the perovskite La0.9Sr0.1MnO3, determined using the
diffuse reflection coefficient spectra, shifts by the giant amount 0.4 eV i
n the direction of lower energies as the temperature decreases from the Cur
ie point (155 K) to 141 K. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-3
