Cu-doping induced ferromagnetic insulating behavior and domain wall pinning effects in LaMnO3

Abstract: A systematic study on the structural, magnetic, and electrical transport properties was performed for the LaMn 1−x Cu x O 3 system. A single phase of orthorhombic perovskite structure was formed for x = 0.05-0.40. A striking paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition and a considerable magnetoresistance effect were observed at the ferromagnetic ordering temperature T C , but no insulator-metal transition induced by Cu-doping was observed. Below T C , a visible unexpected drop was observed in the ac susceptibility a… Show more

“…Among these, the most stable ones (i.e., those that display the darkest green quarters) are those involving the alkali and alkaline earth elements (i.e., K, Rb, Cs, Ca, Sr, Ba). Indeed, all these findings are entirely consistent with available experimental evidence for both La and Mn , site doping. We note though that K, Rb and Cs have not been considered in experimental work in the past, and hence, constitute new dopants identified by this study.…”

“…On the other hand, superfluous Cu 2+ resulting from an increase in CuO content in the composite occupied B sites between Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ , and would induce disorder and change the bond angle and bond length of Mn-O-Mn interaction, and, thus, weaken the double-exchange interaction. Accordingly, T C and Ms decreased with the gradual increase in doping level [54,55]. A similar mechanism could be responsible for the observed decrease in magnetization at 5 K in the LCMO-MO composite.…”
