Structural and magnetic ordering in La0.6Ca0.4MnO3
Description
The structural and magnetic ordering in La0.6Ca0.4MnO3 has been studied by neutron powder diffraction as a function of temperature between 15 and 300 K. The para-ferromagnetic transition at T∼250 K is accompanied by significant structural distortions in the form of octahedral Mn-O6 rotations. At 15 K, the total refined ferromagnetic moment on the Mn site was obtained as 3.1 μB, in reasonable agreement with the total expected average moment of mixed Mn3+/Mn4+ matrix
