摘要
The effect of quenching on the magnetic properties of polycrystalline Pr0.5Sr0.5MnO3 has been investigated. Quenching samples from 1400 degreesC to room temperature in water (sample I) or in air (sample II) allows them to crystallize in two different systems and to exhibit different magnetic behavior at low temperature. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns for samples I and II could be indexed, respectively, in the rhombohedral perovskite structure with R (3) over barc space group and an orthorhombic one with Imma space group. Magnetization measurements show that bath samples exhibit a paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition at 280 K (sample I) and 265 K (sample II). At low temperature, sample I presents a ferromagnetic canted spin state or a mixture of ferromagnetic and canted phases, while sample II behaves as an antiferromagnet below 160 K.
