Abstract
A new family of manganites, LnBaMn2O6 − γ(Ln = Nd, Sm, and Gd), is obtained by the method of topotactic reactions. In these compounds, rare-earth and barium ions are ordered, which results in a dramatic increase in the temperature of transition to the paramagnetic state. Thus, a SmBaMn2O6 compound with a disordered arrangement of Sm and Ba ions is a spin glass with the freezing temperature of magnetic moments T f = 40 K, whereas in the state with an ordered Sm and Ba arrangement, the Curie temperature T C, is ∼ 280 K. Below T C, a maximum in resistivity and magnetoresistance is observed. The possible models of magnetic ordering are discussed.
