Abstract

Changes in the charge/orbital ordering (CO/OO) structure with the bandwidth of the eg band and quenched disorder were investigated in doped manganites RE0.5(Ca1-ySry)1.5MnO4(RE = Pr,Eu) with a single-layer perovskite structure. A systematic study of the modulation structure associated with the CO/OO phase demonstrated that the long-range commensurate structure changes to a short-range incommensurate structure with increasing Sr content through the enhancement of the bandwidth and quenched disorder in these systems. At the same time, the transition temperature of CO/OO (TCO/OO) decreases. Changes in structure and TCO/OO with different A-site combinations reveal that the CO/OO phase is strongly suppressed by the widening of the eg band and the stronger quenched disorder in these layered manganites.
