| Summary: | Polycrystalline perovskite manganite of Pr0.67Ba0.33MnO3 (PBMO) bulk ceramic samples were prepared by conventional solid‐state reaction method. The structures, typical magnetic properties and magnetoresistance were studied. At lower sintering temperature (900 °C to 1100 °C), formation of PBMO phase accompany by secondary phases of BaMnO3 and Pr6O11 were observed. However, at 1200 °C, pure single phase of PBMO was obtained. PBMO compounds become denser upon the increase in sintering temperature. A reduction of secondary phases as sintering temperature increased lead to the enhancement of magnetization value. The highest room temperature %MR of 17.1% was found in sample sintered at 1200 °C in 10 kG external magnetic field. In summary, higher sintering temperature reduced multiphase formation and enhanced the magnetic and magnetoresistance properties. |
