The study of charge ordering in colossal magnetoresistance

Hole-doped maganite with middle to narrow bandwidth La1-xCaxMnO3 was extensively studied because of its colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) characteristic under a magnetic field. These kind of materials show un- common magnetic and electric properties. The charge order phase only happens to the region x> 0.5, and along with decreasing temperature, its phase goes from para-insulator to charge-ordered then to antiferromagne-
tism. In our studies, we apply correlation function of Green¡¦s function to LCMO and get susceptibility of charge and spin. Then we can get the cri-
tical value of Coulomb repulsion inside the material by substituting the
experimental values of phase transition temperature. This critical values is the key point of charge-ordered. Then we can also get the size of char- ge gap which decides the stability of charge-ordered phase. After know- ing the Coulomb repulsion and charge gap, we can picture the relation of inside and on-site Coulomb repulsion qualitatively while the transition happens. Here the on-site Coulomb repulsion means to the Hund¡¦s coupl- ing between d electrons. And by this we¡¦ll understand the physics inside
CMR materials.
