摘 要:Lao.7Sr0.3Mnl_xNixO3 (x = 0, 0.025, 0.050 and 0.075) ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The partial substitution of Mn by Ni2+ leads to a decrease in cell volume as well as a structural transition from the rhombohedral to the orthorhombic structure. Ni2+ doping increases the electrical resistivity, decreases the semiconductor-metal transition temperature (Tms) and relatively enhances the room temperature magnetoresistance (MR), especially in x = 0.025 and around Tins. With respect to conduction mechanism, the small polaron hopping (SPH) and the variable range hopping (VRH) models were used to ex- amine conduction in the semiconducting region.
