Abstract
The fact that there are Mn2+ at the A sites in the ABO3 perovskite phase of manganites with the nominal composition La0.6−xNdxSr0.1-MnO3 showed by detailed experimental study and theoretical calculations. The magnetic moments of these Mn2+ are antiparallel to those of the Mn ions at the B sites. The content of the Mn2+ increases as the average ionic radius, 〈rA〉, of the ions at A sites decreases, resulting in the experimentally observed phenomenon that the content of the Mn3O4 phase in the manganites decreases with decreasing 〈rA〉.
