✦ Synopsis
LaMn
؊x Li x O 3 perovskites have been synthesized by a 6ux method using LiCl. Substitution of Li> creates mixed-valent manganese according to the formula LaMn 3؉ 1؊3x Mn 4؉ 2x Li ؉ x O 3 , for 0.104x40.20. At low values of x, additional vacancies are found on the perovskite A and B sites. All the members crystallize in the rhombohedral (R-3c) perovskite structure and are semiconducting with no long-range magnetic order. The samples show spin-glass-like short-range magnetic correlations at low temperatures and Curie+Weiss behavior above ca. 150 K. The x ؍ 0.05 and 0.10 samples show a magnetoresistive e4ect of &90% at 50 K and 8.5 T. The e4ect of Li ؉ substitution in LaMnO 3 cannot be explained on the basis of a simple percolation model.
