Long-range magnetic ordering in bulk Tb1-xMxMnO₃ (M = Ca, Sr)
Abstract:
Substitution of Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) at the A-site of multiferroic TbMnO3 bulk results in an increased average ionic radius and ionic-size mismatch, and was found to reduce the orthorhombic distortion. Signatures of long-range ferromagnetic-like ordering at 78 K in Tb0.67Ca0.33MnO3 and at 87 K in Tb0.67Sr0.33MnO3 samples are clearly observed in both the dc and ac susceptibility data. A compensation temperature is also observed in Tb0.67Ca0.33MnO3, indicating the antiparallel alignment of Tb(3+) moments to the Mn(3+)-Mn(4+) moments. The canted antiferromagnetic ordering coexists with antiferromagnetic clusters, resulting in spin-glass-like behavior at low temperatures. An increased average ionic radius and ionic-size mismatch at the A-site are determined to be critical factors in determining the magnetic properties of the hole-doped manganites.

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...
