23 Oct 2000 | | Subject: | Strongly Correlated Electrons; Materials Science | cond-mat.str-el cond-mat.mtrl-sci | | Abstract: | The structural phase diagram of the La1-xSrxMnO3 system in the compositional range 0.08 <= x <= 0.125 has been investigated by high-resolution synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction techniques between 20-600 K. Recent studies have reported that there is an unusual rentrant-type phase transition in this range involving an abrupt change in lattice parameters but no change in the crystal symmetry, which remains orthorhombic Pbnm. The transition to the reentrant phase is from a ferromagnetic metallic to a ferromagnetic insulating phase with some unusual properties. Our results demonstrate that for samples with x =0.11-0.125 there exist two lower-symmetry structural regions having monoclinic and triclinic symmetry respectively. There is a sharp first-order transition from the monoclinic to the triclinic phase coinciding with the transition to the ferromagnetic insulating phase, and an abrupt crossover from the orthorhombic Pbnm region with a near-vertical phase boundary just below x = 0.11. The new phases indicate the presence of some novel type of orbital ordering unlike that found in LaMnO3. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0010339 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
