Abstract

The present study is devoted to the L0.08Ca1.92MnO4 series (with L=La, Pr, Ho and Y) which exhibits, at low temperature, the highest ferromagnetic components in the magnetization curves, among the electron-doped manganites belonging to the first members of the Ruddlesden–Popper family. We show that, in the whole series, coexistence of ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism is induced, independent of the size of the L cation and that the holmium-based compound has a particular behavior with the presence of 2D antiferromagnetism instead of 3D for the other cations.
