Abstract

Magnetic and structural transitions in NdBaMn2−xTixO6 (x = 0, 0.2) samples obtained by the topotactic procedure at 1373 K and lgPO2=−19 atm are studied by low-temperature X-ray diffraction and magnetometry in 1–5 T fields. Undoped double manganite undergoes a reversible ferromagnet—antiferromagnet magnetic phase transition at ТN = 278 K without changing symmetry. The 20 mol.% titanium substitution for manganese causes a decrease in symmetry from the tetragonal space group P4/mmm to the orthorhombic space group Pmmm and a shift of magnetic transitions to lower temperatures. Oxide NdBaMn2O6 demonstrates high values of the magnetocaloric effect in the temperature range 250–315 K.
