The strong coupling between the electron spin and lattice arising from the Jahn-Teller effect of manganese ions plays an important role in the mechanism of colossal magnetoresistance and related properties of the rare earth manganites. The lattice effects in this class of oxides have been extensively studied through the application of hydrostatic as well as chemical pressures and magnetic fields. The recently observed giant 18O isotope effect provides direct evidence for the formation of lattice polarons in manganites. Here we report the preliminary results of our investigations on a variety of normal as well as 18O isotope-exchanged perovskite manganites exhibiting colossal magnetoresistance and charge ordering. The observed isotope shift of Tc as well as that of Tco is correlated with the key parameters controlling the lattice such as the Mn 3+ content, the average ionic radius of the A-site cation ⟨rA⟩ , and the A-site ionic size disorder σ2 .

Abstract The structures of the equiatomic stannides RERhSn with the smaller rare earth elements Y, Gd-Tm and Lu were reinvestigated on the basis of temperature-dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction data. GdRhSn crystallizes with the aristotype ZrNiAl at 293 and 90 K. For RE = Y, Tb, Ho and Er the HP-CeRuSn type (approximant with space group R3m) is already formed at room temperature, while DyRhSn adopts the HP-CeRuSn type below 280 K. TmRhSn and LuRhSn show incommensurate modulated variants with superspace groups P31m(1/3; 1/3; γ) 000 (No. 157.1.23.1) (γ = 3/8 for TmRhSn and γ = 2/5 for LuRhSn). The driving force for superstructure formation (modulation) is a strengthening of Rh–Sn bonding. The modulation is expressed in a 119Sn Mössbauer spectrum of DyRhSn at 78 K through line broadening.
