Abstract

The synthesis conditions for the gadolinium manganite doped with barium (x = 0.1) are determined. The sequence and typical features of phase formation during the synthesis of Gd0.9Ba0.1MnO3 are determined. It is revealed that the β→γ-BaCO3 phase transformation at T = 960 °C leads to an increase in the reactivity of the initial reagents. At this stage, the Gd0.9Ba0.1MnO3 formation centers begin to grow. Intermediate grinding is necessary to homogenize the phase; additional annealing at T = 1250 °C is applied to stabilize the phase. Substitution of Gd for Ba changes the microstructure of the manganite and leads to suppression of grain growth. Modification of the GdMnO3 manganite with barium leads to partial removal of the Jahn-Teller distortions, and as a consequence to a decrease in temperature of the phase transition O’→O. The addition of barium does not affect noticeably the magnetic behavior of the initial manganite but decreases the magnetic moment and stimulates ferromagnetic correlations in its antiferromagnetic manganese subsystem.
