Effect of lattice distortions on the competition between the double and superexchange mechanisms in LaMnO{sub 3}

Journal Article Mryasov, O N ; Sabiryanov, R F ; Freeman, A J ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

Double exchange (DE), superexchange (SE), and higher-order contributions to the exchange interaction energy between Mn layers in LaMnO{sub 3} are studied using the linear-muffin-tin-orbital method as generalized to treat noncollinear magnetic configurations. The degree of the internal lattice distortion (f) and the angle ({theta}) between ferromagnetically ordered Mn layers are considered as simulation parameters. We find that both global and internal lattice distortions dramatically influence the character of the exchange interactions: global distortions associated with variations of the apical Mn-O bond length promotes the DE contribution; the bending of the Mn-O bonds in the (a-b) plane suppresses the DE andmore »« less

Competition between lattice distortion and charge dynamics for the charge carriers of double-layered manganites

Journal Article Park, J ; Kimura, T ; Tokura, Y - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

We have investigated the characteristics of the charge carriers of the double-layered manganites, La{sub 2{minus}2x}Sr{sub 1+2x}Mn{sub 2}O{sub 7}(x=0.35, 0.40), using polarized O 1s x-ray absorption spectroscopy. When the system undergoes the insulator to metal transition, the spectral weight is transferred to the absorption threshold, analogous to the Drude weight in optical absorption. The charge carriers in the metallic phase contain comparable amounts of in-plane and out-of-plane character. This result is due to the competition between the tetragonal lattice distortion and the charge dynamics that force the charge carriers out of and in the plane, respectively. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital Themore » American Physical Society}« less
