Abstract:
In order to gain insights into the origin of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) in manganese oxides, we performed a 139La NMR study in the double-layered compound La(1.2)Sr(1.8)Mn2O7. We find that above the Curie temperature T(C) = 126 K, applying a magnetic field induces a long-range ferromagnetic order that persists up to T = 330 K. The critical field at which the induced magnetic moment is saturated coincides with the field at which the CMR effect reaches a maximum. Our results therefore indicate that the CMR observed above T(C) in this compound is due to the field-induced ferromagnetism that produces a metallic state via the double exchange interaction.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
