摘要
Element-modified La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 (LCMO) ceramics have been a major research subject in the past decades due to their various electromagnetic properties and potential applications in infrared detection and magnetic storage devices. However, its electromagnetic transport mechanism has not been fully elucidated and its properties need to be further optimized for practical applications. Here, we report the effect of Ni2+ doping on the structural, magnetic, the temperature coefficient of resistivity (TCR) and magnetoresistance (MR) properties of La0.67Ca0.33Mn1-xNixO3 (LCMNO) ceramics. All samples were synthesized by the sol-gel method and were in pure phase. XRD refinement results show a decrease in lattice constants and cell volume of LCMNO ceramics with increasing Ni2+ content. The XPS study confirms the reduction of the Mn3+/Mn4+ ratio and indicates that oxygen vacancies occur in LCMNO ceramics due to the Ni2+ doping. Curie-Weiss fitting results suggest ferromagnetic superexchange coupling between Ni2+ and Mn3+(4+) ions. The electrical transport properties of LCMNO ceramics were further investigated using the spin polaron hopping model in the high temperature range and the various competing scattering mechanisms in the low temperature range. In addition, double resistivity peak behavior is observed at x = 0.04 and 0.05. Furthermore, the TCR of the LCMNO ceramics increased to 45.4 %·K-1 (x = 0.01), while the MR increased to 67.9 % (x = 0.03), respectively. Our studies contribute to a better understanding of the electromagnetic properties of LCMNO ceramics.
