Mn $K$-edge fluorescence data are presented for thin film samples (3000~AA) of Colossal Magnetoresistive (CMR) La$_{0.67}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$: as-deposited, and post-annealed at 1000 K and 1200 K. The local distortion is analyzed in terms of three contributions: static, phonon, and an extra, temperature-dependent, polaron term. The polaron distortion is very small for the as-deposited sample and increases with the annealing temperature. In contrast, the static distortion in the samples decreases with the annealing temperature. Although the local structure of the as-deposited sample shows very little temperature dependence, the change in resistivity with temperature is the largest of these three thin film samples. The as-deposited sample also has the highest magnetoresistance (MR), which indicates some other mechanism may also contribute to the transport properties of CMR samples. We also discuss the relationship between local distortion and the magnetization of the sample.

We report magnetization experiments in two magnetically isolated ferromagnetic nanotubes of perovskite La$_{0.67}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$. The results show that the magnetic anisotropy is determined by the sample shape although the coercive field is reduc ed by incoherent magnetization reversal modes. The temperature dependence of the magnetization reveals that the magnetic behavior is dominated by grain surface properties. These measurements were acquired using a Silicon micro-mechanical oscillator working in its resonant mode. The sensitivity was enough to measure the magnetic properties of these two samples with a mass lower than 14 picograms and to obtain for the first time the magnetization loop for one isolated nanotube.
Reflectivity as a function of temperature for the La$_{0.67}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ (LCMO) film has been measured across the metal-insulator phase transition. The optical properties and their temperature dependence were determined in the infrared and v isible range by fits to a Drude-Lorentz model, using exact formula for the thin film optics and the measured properties of the substrate. The phonon modes were identified and verified with lattice dynamical calculations for the ideal and distorted perovskite structure of the material. The optical conductivity shows agreement with the double exchange mechanism in conjunction with the Jahn-Teller distortion term in the Hamiltonian. Low temperature metallic phase is dominated by large polaron dynamics, a key component of electron-orbital coupling in a strongly corrrelated system. Free carrier dynamics in the metallic phase is described in terms of coherent heavy polaronic motion in the DC limit with incoherent and asymmetric polaronic background in the mid-IR range. The strength and line width of Jahn-Teller modes has been discussed across the phase transition and their temperature evolution is qualitatively discussed on account of existing electron-phonon coupling. The localized Holstein polaron formation in the high temperature insulative phase is identified as optical conductivity peaks in the visible range above the critical temperature.
We discuss the effects of local structure on the electrical transport and magnetic properties of La(0.67)Ca(0.33)Mn(1-x)Ti(x)O(3) system.Based on the intercomparison of the structure, transport and magnetic properties of the Mn site substituted La(0. 67)Ca(0.33)MnO(3) with isovalent diamagnetic and paramagnetic ions, we argue that local structural effects have a decisive role to play, compared to the local spin coupling effects, in the ferromagnetic-metallic ground state of the CMR manganites
We present a study of interlayer coupling and proximity effects in a La$_{0.66}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$(10 nm)/YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_7$(10 nm) superlattice. Using element-sensitive x-ray probes, the magnetic state of Mn can be probed without seeing the strong d iamagnetism of the superconductor, which makes this approach ideal to study changes in the magnetic properties across the superconducting transition. By a combined experiment using {it in situ} transport measurements during polarized soft x-ray measurements, we were able to see no noticeable influence of the superconducting state on the magnetic properties and no evidence for magnetic coupling across a 10 nm YBCO layer.
In this paper, we examine the possible influence of extrinsic factors on the electrical and magnetotransport of La(0.67)Ca(0.33)Mn(1-x)Ru(x)O(3) (x < 0.10). These results not only exclude the extrinsic factors, but establishes the fact that the metal transitions both exhibiting MR is intrinsic to Ru substituted La(0.67)Ca(0.33)MnO(3) and the system. These results substantiate our hypothesis that Ru substituted system undergoes a magnetic phase separation involving the co-existence of two ferromagnetic-metallic phases in its ground state.
