Colossal magnetoresistance materials, to which manganites and conventional ferromagnetic semiconductors belong, draw great attention because of their intriguing physical properties and the excellent prospects for their practical applications in electronic devices. In addition, magnetic semiconductors are basic materials for high-temperature conductors, and it is impossible to construct a theory of the latter without elucidating properties of the former.
This book presents theoretical and experimental results on manganites and conventional magnetic semiconductors, with emphasis on the former. It is addressed mainly to researchers dealing with manganites or high-temperature superconductors, but is also useful for undergraduate and graduate students.
Contents:
- Introduction and Necessary Information about Non-magnetic Semiconductors and Insulating Magnetic Systems
- Principles of Theory of Conducting Magnetic

- Non-degenerate Antiferromagnetic Semiconductors and Self-trapped States
- Degenerate Ferromagnetic Semiconductors
- Degenerate Antiferromagnetic Semiconductors and Phase Separation
- Lanthanum Manganites
- Other Manganites
- Specific Effects and Theory of Manganites
Readership: Advanced graduate students, lecturers and researchers in condensed matter physics, superconductivity and magnetic materials.
