Title: Pressure-induced magnetic transition in manganite (La{sub 0.75}Ca{sub 0.25}MnO{sub 3}).

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.

Low temperature Mn K-edge x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and x-ray diffraction measurements were carried out to investigate the stability of the ferromagnetic ground state in manganite La{sub 0.75}Ca{sub 0.25}MnO{sub 3} under nearly uniform compression using diamond anvil cells. The magnetic dichroism signal gradually decreases with pressure and disappears at 23 GPa, and meanwhile a uniaxial compression of MnO{sub 6} octahedra along the b axis is observed to continuously increase with pressure and become anomalously large at 23.5 GPa. These changes are attributed to a ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic transition that is associated with orbital ordering at high pressure.
