Signature of Griffith phase in (Tb1-xCex)MnO3

Abstract

Griffith phase phenomena is attributed to existence of FM (ferromagnetic) cluster in AFM (antiferromagnetic) ordering which usually occurs in ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic bilayers or multilayers. In (Tb1-xCex)MnO3 evolution of Griffith phase have been observed. The observed Griffith phase might be due to the exchange interaction between Mn3+/Mn2+ states. © 2016 Author(s).
