The manganese oxides of general formula RE 1− x M x MnO 3 (RE= rare earth, M= Ca, Sr,
Ba, Pb) have remarkable interrelated structural, magnetic and transport properties induced …

Experimental data and their theoretical interpretation are presented for the colossal
magnetoresistance (CMR) materials to which conventional ferromagnetic semiconductors …

Describing all aspects of the physics of transition metal compounds, this book provides a
comprehensive overview of this unique and diverse class of solids. Beginning with the basic …

Mixed-valence manganese oxides (R1-χAχ) MnO3 (R= rare-earth cation, A= alkali or
alkaline earth cation), with a structure similar to that of perovskite CaTiO3, exhibit a rich …

Magnetic oxides show a variety of extrinsic magnetotransport phenomena: grain-boundary,
tunnelling and domain-wall magnetoresistance. In view of these phenomena the role of …

The hysteretic and reversible polarity-dependent resistive switch driven by electric pulses is
studied in both Ag/Pr0. 7Ca0. 3MnO3/YBa2Cu3O7 sandwiches and single-layer Pr0. 7Ca0 …

Perovskite transition-metal oxides are networks of corner-sharing octahedra whose tilts and
distortions are known to affect their electronic and magnetic properties. We report …

The perovskite manganites with generic formula RE 1− x AE x MnO 3 (RE= rare earth, AE=
Ca, Sr, Ba and Pb) have drawn considerable attention, especially following the discovery of …

Charge-ordered phases of rare earth manganates are novel manifestations arising from
interactions between the charge carriers and phonons, giving rise to the localization of …

We consider the nanoscale electronic phase separation in a wide class of different
materials, mostly in strongly correlated electron systems. The phase separation turns out to …
