Critical exponent analysis of lightly germanium-doped La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xGexO3 (x = 0.05 and x = 0.07)
We have used a critical behavior study of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) manganite perovskites whose Mn sites have been doped with Ge to explore magnetic interactions. Light Ge doping of 5 or 7 percent tended to produce LCMOs with second order magnetic transitions. The critical parameters of 5- and 7-percent...
