“…7 Researchers showed that partial substitution of the ions at site A or B by other metal ions and reduction in their particle size to a critical value (usually nanometers) could make the T C values reach close to room temperature, which is benecial for MR technology. [8][9][10][11] Considering the crystal structure of the La 1−x Sr x MnO 3 system, most reports indicated that the rhombohedral structure could be observed in the range of 0.2 # x # 0.5. 12,13 However, Bindu 3 found that the hexagonal structure exists in the samples x = 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4, similar to the observation in the La 0.7 -Sr 0.3 MnO 3 nanopowders fabricated by high-energy ball milling and then calcined at 700 °C, 800 °C, and 900 °C.…”
