Notes:
Well characterized Ln1−xCaxMnO3 manganites (Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Sm) with x=1/2 and x=1/3 have been investigated by magnetization measurements in pulsed magnetic fields up to 50 T. Using such high fields all the CO phase boundaries were identified in the temperature range 4–300 K. The transition fields at 4.2 K have been determined in a series of polycrystalline samples with x=1/2 and different effective bandwidths. They vary from Hc=8 T for La to (approximate)30 T for Sm. In this article we have focused on selected H–T phase diagrams. In particular, the results on Pr1/2Ca1/2MnO3, with the ideal 1:1 electron/hole ratio, are compared with Pr2/3Ca1/3MnO3 where the carrier concentration has been significantly reduced. The observed anomalies in the Hc(T) curves are discussed in the light on neutron diffraction data. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
