Variation of the Ru moment in the Ca(0.3)Sr(0.7)Ru(1-x)Mn(x)O3 system.

The variation of the magnetic moment on Ru and Mn atoms in the Ca(0.3)Sr(0.7)Ru(1-x)Mn(x)O(3) system was investigated by the magnetic Compton scattering technique using synchrotron radiation. The Ca(0.3)Sr(0.7)Ru(1-x)Mn(x)O(3) system has ferrimagnetism with an antiferromagnetic coupling between Ru and Mn, and the dominant magnetic component changes from ferromagnetic Ru to ferromagnetic Mn at x ∼0.25 as the Mn substitution proceeds. The mechanism for the change in the magnetism of Ca(0.3)Sr(0.7)Ru(1-x)Mn(x)O(3) is discussed.
