Lattice effects on magnetic and transport properties in La 0.67-x Gd x Sr 0.33 CoO 3
Annotatsiya
The lattice effects on the magnetic and transport properties in La<sub>0.67-x</sub>Gd<sub>x</sub>Sr<sub>0.33</sub>CoO<sub>3</sub> series are studied. The introduction of smaller Gd<sup>3+</sup> ions leads to an enhanced mismatch between the La-O layer and the CoO<sub>2</sub> layer and a decrease of the tolerance factor <i>t</i>. The spin-state of trivalent Co ion transits to low-spin state with the decrease of Co-O bond length. The doping of Gd<sup>3+</sup> drives the system from the cluster-glass state to the spin-glass state and progressively decreases the Curie temperature. At high Gd<sup>3+</sup> doping content, an interesting negative magnetoresistance occurs at low temperature.
