摘要
La0.67Ca0.33Mn1-xCoxO3 (x = 0.00 0.05, 0.075, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35 0.40) have been investigated by AC susceptibility, DC magnetization and DC electrical resistivity measurements. Substitution of Co for Mn did not cause any change in crystal symmetry, yet electrical conductivity as well as ferromagnetism have been consistently suppressed by the dopant. The results can be explained on the basis of weakening of the double exchange process and an increase in anisotropy of the exchange interaction consequent upon Co doping.
