摘要：

We present magnetization studies in a series of phase-separated La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 manganite samples, with different low-temperature fractions of the ferromagnetic (FM) and charge-ordered antiferromagnetic phases. A particular experimental procedure probes the effect of the magnetic field applied while cooling the samples, which promotes FM fraction enlargement and enhances the melting of the charge-ordered phase. The response of the system depending on its magnetic field history indicates the existence of three different regimes in the phase-separated state which develops below T-C. Our data allow us to identify the onset temperature below which the system becomes magnetic and structurally phase separated and an onset field above which FM fraction enlargement occurs.
