The structural, magnetic and transport properties of Pr0.6(Ca1−xSrx)0.4MnO3

Transport and magnetic measurements as a function of both temperature and magnetic field as well as neutron powder diffraction studies have been used to investigate the properties of Pr0.6(Ca1-xSrx)0.4MnO3 (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 1) as a function of x. This system exhibits a remarkable sensitivity to changes in x, underlining the strong correlation between the structural, magnetic and electronic properties of the manganite materials.
