We investigate the low-temperature electron, lattice, and spin dynamics of LaMnO_3 (LMO) and La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO_3 (LCMO) by resonant pump-probe reflectance spectroscopy. Probing the high-spin d-d transition as a function of time delay and probe energy, we compare the responses of the Mott insulator and the double-exchange metal to the photoexcitation. Attempts have previously been made to describe the sub-picosecond dynamics of CMR manganites in terms of a phenomenological three temperature model describing the energy transfer between the electron, lattice and spin subsystems followed by a comparatively slow exponential decay back to the ground state. However, conflicting results have been reported. Here we first show clear evidence of an additional component in the long term relaxation due to film-to-substrate heat diffusion and then develop a modified three temperature model that gives a consistent account for this feature. We confirm our interpretation by using it to deduce the bandgap in LMO. In addition we also model the non-thermal sub-picosecond dynamics, giving a full account of all observed transient features both in the insulating LMO and the metallic LCMO.
The gigantic reduction of the electric resistivity under the applied magnetic field, CMR effect, is now widely accepted to appear in the vicinity of the insulator to metal transition of the perovskite manganites. Recently, we have discovered the firs
A tight binding parametrization of local spin density functional band theory is combined with a dynamical mean field treatment of correlations to obtain a theory of the magnetic transition temperature, optical conductivity and T=0 spinwave stiffness
In this paper, we discuss the most deleterious effect of charge state modification at the Mn site on the ground state of the CMR manganites.
139La NMR spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 and rf enhancement experiments provide evidence that the low temperature regime of the ferromagnetic (FM) phase of La1-xCaxMnO3 segregates into highly-conductive and poorly-conductive FM regions, associated
Well defined spin waves were observed when the spin dynamics of Tl2Mn2O7, the first pyrochlore compound found to exhibit colossal magnetoresistance, was measured [J.W.Lynn et al., Phys.Rev.Lett. 80,4582(1998)], in stark contrast with the experimental
