Abstract

The magnetic and electrical properties in phase-separated La0.7Ca0.3Mn0.9Cu0.1O3 perovskite were studied in detail. Experimental results show that the substitution of Cu at Mn-site suppresses the ferromagnetic (FM) phase of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 matrix and induces a charge ordering transition at ∼146 K. At ∼256 K, a Griffiths-like behaviour is observed. At low temperatures, the occurrence of an irreversible metamagnetic transition associated with a large relaxation rate is analyzed, clearly indicating the dynamic phase coexistence and evolution of FM islands. A magnetic phase diagram is finally constructed based on the magnetic measurements, summarizing the dynamic evolution process of phase separation.
