Abstract
The magnetic properties of La 0.60R 0.07Di 0.33MnO 3 ferromagnetic manganites (Di = Sr, Ba) are studied, where La is partly replaced by magnetic rare earths R. It is shown that (i) there is a ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and R spins, (ii) the Curie temperature is lowered compared to the parent La compound and (iii) its depression is correlated with the effective moment of the rare earth ion. This last relation is tentatively explained by a magnetic pair-breaking effect, where fluctuating R moments lower the double-exchange coupling between Mn atoms.
