Abstract

La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 samples prepared by heating the precursor gel at different temperatures in the 873-1473 K range show nearly the same ferromagnetic transition temperature (Tc≈392±4 K), but the insulator-metal like transition temperatures (Tp) are significantly lower (≈170 K) than the corresponding Tcs in the samples annealed at lower temperatures (873 K and 1073 K). Magnetoresistance shows a peak only in the sample where Tp≈Tc. Thermopower (S) is large and negative for the samples annealed at lower temperatures, but it is low, exhibiting a change of sign with temperature for the sample annealed at 1473 K.
