Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study reveals the unusual stress-strain and magnetostriction in LaSrCoO3 single crystals. The stress-strains and magnetostriction along the [110]c and [111]c axes shows shape memory effects with hysteresis in the order of approximately 10-3. The surface morphology, which was observed by differential interference microscopy, changes with applied stress or magnetic field. Furthermore, the transverse magnetostriction along the [110]c axis shows super elasticity. On the other hand, the strain along the [100]c axis shows hysteresis-less stress-strain and magnetostriction. High field magnetization of substituted LaCoO3 reveals that substituting the Co ion with Rh or Ir stabilizes the magnetic excited state of the Co ion. The effect of substitution can be explained as arising from the lattice volume, i.e., the magnetic excited state is stabilized by the lattice expansion.
