Abstract

The oxygen isotope effect in ordered half-doped manganite PrBaMn216-18O6 has been investigated. Real and imaginary parts of ac magnetic susceptibility, dc magnetization and magnetoresistance were measured at temperatures from 4.2 to 320 K in applied magnetic field up to 35 kOe. Substantial increase of charge ordering (CO) transition temperature TCO under oxygen isotope substitution 16O 18O and small decrease of ferromagnetic (FM) transition temperature TFM were found. Small systematic shift of ferromagnetic transition temperature in oxygen reduced manganite PrBaMn216 18O5 is also considered. The obtained results are compared with those observed in other manganites demonstrating the large isotope effect.
