چکیده
Pressure effects on the stability of magnetic phases in La(1.4)Sr(1.6)Mn(2)O(7) have been studied using magnetization measurements and neutron diffraction. At ambient conditions this material is a quasi-two-dimensional ferromagnet. On cooling it becomes ordered three dimensionally: at 90 K La(1.4)Sr(1.6)Mn(2)O(7) it becomes an antiferromagnet, and at 65 K it undergoes a transition into a ferromagnetic phase. Using neutron diffraction techniques on a single crystal of La(1.4)Sr(1.6)Mn(2)O(7) it has been shown that these two magnetic phases belong to a single structural phase and do not coexist at low temperatures. The application of pressure enhances the antiferromagnetic correlations between the Mn(2)O(9) bilayers.

A Minimal tight-binding model for ferromagnetic canted bilayer manganites
Half-metallicity in materials has been a subject of extensive research due to its potential for applications in spintronics. Ferromagnetic manganites have been seen as a good candidate, and aside from a small minority-spin pocket observed in La(2-2x)Sr(1+2x)Mn(2)O(7) (x = 0.38), transport measurements show that ferromagnetic manganites essentially behave like half metals. Here we develop robust...
متن کاملNeutron-scattering evidence for a periodically modulated superconducting phase in the underdoped cuprate La1.905Ba0.095CuO4.
The role of antiferromagnetic spin correlations in high-temperature superconductors remains a matter of debate. We present inelastic neutron-scattering evidence that gapless spin fluctuations coexist with superconductivity in La1.905Ba0.095CuO4. Furthermore, we observe that both the low-energy magnetic spectral weight and the spin incommensurability are enhanced with the onset of superconductin...
متن کاملPressure-induced colossal piezoresistance effect and the collapse of the polaronic state in the bilayer manganite (La(0.4)Pr(0.6))(1.2)Sr(1.8)Mn2O7.
We have investigated the effect of hydrostatic pressure as a function of temperature on the resistivity of a single crystal of the bilayer manganite (La(0.4)Pr(0.6))(1.2)Sr(1.8)Mn(2)O(7). Whereas a strong insulating behaviour is observed at all temperatures at ambient pressure, a clear transition into a metallic-like behaviour is induced when the sample is subjected to a pressure (P) of ~1.0 GP...
متن کاملA class of rare antiferromagnetic metallic oxides: double perovskite AMn3V4O12 (A = Na(+), Ca(2+), and La(3+)) and the site-selective doping effect.
We have investigated the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of A-site-ordered double-perovskite-structured oxides, AA'3B4O12 (A = Na, Ca, and La) with Mn and V at A' and B sites, respectively, using first-principle calculations based on the density functional theory. Our calculation results show that the antiferromagnetic phase is the ground state for all the compounds. By changing...
متن کاملMagnetism and electron transport of MnyGa (1 < y < 2) nanostructures
Nanostructured Mn y Ga ribbons with varying Mn concentrations including Mn 1.2 Ga, Mn 1.4 Ga, Mn 1.6 Ga, and Mn 1.9 Ga were prepared using arc-melting and melt-spinning followed by a heat treatment. Our experimental investigation of the nanostructured ribbons shows that the material with y ¼ 1.2, 1.4, and 1.6 prefers the tetragonal L1 0 structure and that with y ¼ 1.9 prefers the D0 22 structur...
