No. Moreno et al., Magnetotransport properties of the Sm0.35Nd0.35Mo0.3Mn1-xFexO3 (M = Pb, Cd; x=0, 0.1) manganites, PHYS ST S-B, 220(1), 2000, pp. 425-428
Polycrystalline samples of the mixed-valence perovskite-type manganites Sm0
.35Nd0.35M0.3Mn1-xFexO3 (M = Pb, Cd; x = 0, 0.1) have been synthesised and
their magnetic and transport properties studied. Magnetic measurements show
that T-C values decrease considerably with the presence of cadmium or iron
. Colossal magnetoresistance has been shifted to lower temperatures. Values
of magnetoresistance near to 40% have been obtained. The presence of defin
ed maxima in the real part of ac susceptibility at the same temperature of
the cusp in the zero field cooling curves corroborates cluster-glass behavi
our.
