Effect of hydrostatic pressure on ferromagnetic phase transition in (Sm0.7Nd0.3)0.52Sr0.48MnO3 single crystal

We report on the pressure dependence of the order of ferromagnetic (FM) to paramagnetic (PM) phase transition in (Sm0.7Nd0.3)0.52Sr0.48MnO3 single crystal. At ambient condition, the system exhibits clear evidences of first-order FM-PM phase transition at (Tc ≈ 146 K). The application of pressure (P...

Description
Summary:We report on the pressure dependence of the order of ferromagnetic (FM) to paramagnetic (PM) phase transition in (Sm0.7Nd0.3)0.52Sr0.48MnO3 single crystal. At ambient condition, the system exhibits clear evidences of first-order FM-PM phase transition at (Tc ≈ 146 K). The application of pressure (P 12.1 kbar) makes the FM transition second-order in nature with Tc≈ 176K.
