Abstract

•Substitution of 20 at% of Mn in the Cr site of antiferromagnetic LaCrO3 leads to an interesting phenomenon of magnetization reversal (negative magnetization) with the maximum magnetic compensation (M=0) temperature, and Tcomp =147 K. In addition to that the sample exhibits tunable exchange bias phenomenon at T

Manganese substituted Lanthanum chromite LaCr0.8Mn0.2O3 exhibits negative magnetization with decrease in temperature under the field cooled (FC) condition for the applied field H≤2000 Oe. The maximum magnetic compensation temperature, (Tcomp) was 147 K. A reentrant positive magnetization was observed at T≤50 K due to low temperature transition. The negative magnetization is explained by considering the paramagnetic moment of Mn ions under the influence of negative internal field. Measurement of magnetic hysteresis loops under FC condition shows the presence of exchange bias field at T
