β¦ Synopsis
The steady-state creep rate of La, _,Sr,MnO, (x = 0.10, 0.15 and 0.25) decreased with increasing Sr content in a regime where diffusional creep is the dominant deformation mechanism. This composition effect when compared to existing point defect models suggested that the rate-controlling species for mass transport in (La, Sr)MnO, is lattice diffusion of the cations, either lanthanum or manganese. This is in agreement with previous creep (based on an activation energy comparison) and sintering results. Diffusional creep can be used effectively to investigate mass transport in (La, Sr)MnO,.

The magnetoresistance of textured and non-textured polycrystalline thin films of La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 has been measured in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60 T between 4.2 and 300 K. The non-textured film shows a linear increase with increasing field of the magnetoconductance at low temperatures which i
