Abstract
LaSr2Mn2 − y Ni y O7 − δ layered manganite solid solutions with 0 < y ≤ 0.6 have been prepared by solid-state reactions and sol-gel processing. The synthesis procedure is shown to have a significant effect on the electrical and magnetic properties of LaSr2Mn2 − y Ni y O7 − δ ceramics. The highest conductivity is offered by the y = 0.2 material, which is due to partial destruction of Mn3+/Mn4+ charge order. Increasing the degree of nickel substitution on the manganese site influences the ferromagnetic properties of LaSr2Mn2 − y Ni y O7 − δ and shifts the magnetoresistance peak to lower temperatures.
