Effect of Pr3+ substitution at the a-site on the structural and electrical properties of hole-doped La-Based Manganites / Rozilah Rajmi ... [et al.]

In this study, the effect of praseodymium substitution at La-site on structural and electrical transport properties of La0.5Ba0.5MnO3 was investigated. Polycrystalline La0.5-xPr0.5x Ba0.5MnO3 (x = 0, 0.50, 1.00) were synthesized using a conventional solid-state method. The powder X-ray diffraction p...
