摘要
Nanoparticles of complex manganites (viz. LaMnO3, La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 and La0.67Ca0.33MnO3) have been synthesized using the reverse micellar route. These manganites are prepared at 800 degrees C and the monophasic nature of all the oxides has been established by powder X-ray diffraction studies. TEM studies show an average grain size of 68, 80 and 50 nm for LaMnO3, La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 and La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 respectively. Ferromagnetic ordering is observed at around 250 K for LaMnO3, 350 K for La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 and 200 K for La0.67Ca0.33MnO3. These Curie temperatures correspond well with those reported for bulk materials with similar composition.
