Abstract
Giant volume magnetostriction near the Curie temperature T C has been revealed in single crystals and ceramics of the La1 − x A xMnO3 (A = Sr, Ba, Ca, Ag) and Re 1 − x SrxMnO3 (Re = Sm, Tb0.25Nd0.3, Eu0.4Nd0.15, Eu) compositions; its values were as high as ∼10−3 in a magnetic field of 8.2 kOe. The giant volume magnetostriction and giant magnetoresistance behave similarly near T C: the temperature dependences of their moduli pass through a maximum, and their isotherms are similar. This phenomenon is explained by the presence of a magnetic two-phase state in these compositions, which is caused by the strong s-d exchange.
