Abstract
We calculate the energy of charge-carrier-induced canted ordering in conducting layered antiferromagnetic systems with double exchange. The quantum approach to the d-spins is used. In the jellium model the energy of the canted state is lower than the energies of both collinear ferro-and antiferromagnetic states over a certain range of charge carrier densities, beginning with arbitrarily small densities. Nevertheless, the canted state cannot be realized, because it is unstable against charge-carrier density fluctuations. The two-phase ferro-antiferromagnetic state can play the role of an alternative to canting. The case of an intermediate electronic-impurity phase separation is investigated.
