The features of structural transformations in lanthanum manganites La1-xAxMnO3+δ (A = Ca, Sr, Ba)

Abstract

In this work, the effect of the ionic radius and concentration of a doping element on the features of the structural transformations in polycrystalline lanthanum manganites, La1-xAxMnOKeywords: Lanthanum manganites, Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction. (A = Ca, Sr, Ba), has been studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. For Mössbauer investigations, a small amount of 57Fe (2 at%) Mössbauer isotope was introduced into the samples. It follows from the analysis of the obtained data that both common features of the structural transformations and differences between them exist in lanthanum manganites depending on ionic radius and concentration of a doping element.
