Abstract

Neutron diffraction and magnetic measurements on La0.5−xCexSr0.5MnO3 (x⩽0.4) reveal that both the Mn-moments (for all x) and the Ce-moments (x⩾0.2) order ferromagnetically at different temperatures. Since Ce- and Mn-moments are coupled antiferromagnetically below T∼100 K, they form a ferrimagnetic ground state. Further, for x=0.3 and 0.4, the temperature dependence of resistivity shows a maximum and a minimum, in contrast to a metallic behavior expected from double exchange ferromagnetism and large band width W. These results suggest an antiferromagnetic Kondo interaction between the localized Ce : 4f and polarized conduction (Mn : eg) electrons in a ferromagnetic Kondo lattice formed by the local Mn : t2g and itinerant eg spins.
