Zero-field cooled exchange bias effect in La Sm1−CrO3 (x=0–0.9) ceramics

“…Below the spin reorientation transition temperature (T SR ), the weak FM moment generates an internal field (H I ) at the R 3 þ site [28]. Due to the paramagnetic effect of magnetic R 3 þ , the antiparallel coupling between R 3 þ and Cr 3 þ sometimes brings about spin reorientation [10][11][12][13][14][15], negative magnetization [16][17][18][19], and EB effects [20][21][22][23]. By changing the magnitude of external magnetic field, tunable magnetic behavior can be obtained.…”

“…Recently, spontaneous magnetic anisotropy induced by spin reorientation causes renewed interests in rare-earth orthochromites [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. The compounds RCrO 3 (R ¼La-Lu, and Y) crystallize in orthorhombic distorted perovskite structure with four formula units per unit cell [27].…”

Magnetic and transport properties of Gd1−Ca CrO3 (x=0.0–0.3): Effect of orbital degeneracy in thermoelectric power

“…Reversal of magnetization in La 0.5 Gd 0.5 CrO 3 is due to canted opposite direction magnetic moment of Gd and Cr [7]. This type of reversal of magnetization phenomena has also been observed in La 1-x Pr x CrO 3 [8], La 1-x Ce x CrO 3 [9],and CeCrO 3 [10]. Some studies have shown that magnetization reversal would be useful for uses like Volatile memories [11,12] and spin resolving devices for charged particles [13].…”

Twofold spin reorientation and field-induced incomplete phase transition in single-crystalDy0.5Pr0.5FeO3

“…Emerging technologies are increasingly predicated upon the discovery of novel functional materials that exhibit striking physical properties, such as phase transition and field-induced spin reorientation (SR) transition [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Materials, such as the rare-earth orthoferrites RFeO 3 (R = rare-earth ion) with a Pbnm structure, are of fundamental interest and technological importance for potential applications, such as inertia-driven spin switching [11], ultrafast photomagnetic recording, laser-induced ultrafast SR [12], ultrafast manipulation of spins through thermally induced SR transition [13], ambient multiferroics [14], and magnetic biasing on P-E hysteresis loops [15].…”
