An NMR study of Pr{sub 0.5}Ca{sub 0.5}Mn{sub 1-x}Ga{sub x}O{sub 3} (x = 0 and 0.03)

Abstract

An NMR study of polycrystalline Pr{sub 0.}5Ca{sub 0.5}Mn{sub 1-x}Ga{sub x}O{sub 3} (x = 0 and 0.03) at 3 K is presented. Zero field spin echo spectra of the Ga doped compound consist of an overlapping {sup 6:}9{sup ,71}Ga signal at 74 MHz (hyperfine field of 5.3 T), a {sup 55}Mn double exchange line at 375 MHz (35.5 T) and a weak Mn{sup 3+} signal between 400 and 550 MHz. Measurements in an applied field show a step-like increase in the double exchange line intensity, which corresponds to an increase in the amount of the ferromagnetic metallic phase. This coincides with a step-like feature in the bulk magnetization measurements. The effect is similar to that in the previous field dependent {sup 55}Mn NMR measurements of Pr{sub 0.67}Ca{sub 0.33} MnO{sub 3}. At the demagnetized and remanent state, a variation of spin-spin relaxation time T{sub 2}, across the {sup 55}Mn line, due to a Suhl-Nakamura interaction is observed, which suggests that the ferromagnetic metallic double exchange regions, at liquid helium temperatures, are at least 4 nm in size.
