Abstract
The magnetic properties of Nd0.6Ln0.1Sr0.3MnO3 compositions (Ln = La, Pr, Gd, Dy) have been investigated thoroughly. The effect of ãrAã is considered to be profound on the PM-FM phase transition in the manganites. The experiment results indicate that TC decreases with Ln changing from La to Gd due to the decreases of ãrAã. The abnormal increase of TC in Dy-composition with the smallest ãrAã and largest Ï2 is attributed to the large magnetic moment of Dy3+ ions. The rapid increase of magnetization below 30 K indicates directly the magnetic ordering of rare earth ions at A-site.
