Electrical and magneto-transport properties of magneto-resistive la0.7Ca0.28Sr0.2 MnO3 prepared at different sintering temperature

The effects of strontium doping on the electrical and magneto-transport properties of magneto resistive La0.7Ca0.28Sr0.02MnO3 at different sintering temperatures have been studied. The samples were prepared by the co-precipitation technique (COP) and sintered at 1120, 1220 and 1320 oC. XRD patterns...
