Abstract
In this study, the polycrystalline sample of La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 (LCMO) with perovskite (Orthorhombic) crystalline structure was synthesized by citrate gel method. The temperature dependent magnetization studies exhibit both paramagnetic to ferromagnetic and ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition of LCMO at â¼230Â K and â¼150Â K, respectively. The X-ray photoemission spectroscopy data revealed electronic structures, chemical properties, while the valence band photoemission spectra for LCMO measured at various photon energies ranging from 40Â eV to 60Â eV, showed Fano curve like resonance behavior for Mn 3p to 3d transition and also confirmed the change of DOS near Fermi level.
