Abstract
A systematic study of LaMn 1− x Co x O 3 perovskite series by means of X-ray absorption spectroscopy in the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) range of the K-absorption edge of Mn is reported. The Mn–K edge absorption measurements in the EXAFS region were performed to study the local surrounding of Mn ions. Polycrystalline powder samples of LaMn 1− x Co x O 3 ( x=0, 0.02; 0.2; 0.4; 0.5; 0.6; 0.8) prepared by solid-state reaction were used. The EXAFS spectra were analyzed with the FEFF8 computer program. The Mn–O distances of Mn to the nearest oxygen surroundings were evaluated for the samples in the series and compared with the Co–O distances obtained by EXAFS in V. Procházka et al., JMMM 310 (2007) 197 and with results of X-ray powder diffraction in C. Autret, J. Phys. Condens. Matter 17 (2005) 1601.
