The crystallography and electronic properties of the Ln[sub 2- x]Sr[sub 1+x]Mn[sub 2]O[sub 7] manganese oxides adopting the n=2 Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) structure are discussed, focusing on the structural phase diagrams and electronic properties in the vicinity of the Mn +3.5 oxidation state and in particular the ease of synthesis of single phases of these materials.
