Abstract

The substitution of Ga for Mn in manganite Nd 0.6Dy 0.1Sr 0.3MnO 3 with a ferromagnetic (FM) ground state has been performed to study the influence of the Mn-sublattice magnetic ordering on the magnetic rare-earth sublattice. It is found that the substitution of Mn 3+ with Ga 3+ ions results in a sharp decrease of T C , reflecting the reduction of the double-exchange interactions strength J Mn–Mn . At the same time, a depinning effect of the rare-earth magnetic moment has been observed. This behavior unambiguously proves that the exchange interaction between Mn and rare-earth ions J Mn–R strongly influences the rare-earth magnetic ordering at temperatures below T C and stabilizes the rare-earth magnetic ground state.
