Localized to Itinerant Electronic Transition in Perovskite Oxides

by John B. Goodenough

Book Overview

Interest in the transition metal oxides with perovskite related structures goes back to the 1950s when the sodium tungsten bronzes NaxWO3 were shown to be metallic 1 ], the system Lal_xSr MnO3 was found to contain a ferromagnetic conductive phase 2], and La0.sSr0.sCoO3 was reported to be a ferromagnetic metal, but with a peculiar magnetization of 1.5 #a/Co atom 3]. Stoichiometric oxide perovskites have the generic formula AMO3 in which the A site...
