Abstract

The ultrasonic (longitudinal and transverse) velocities and the transport and magnetic properties of polycrystalline La_0.25Ca_0.75Mn_1-xCr_xO₃ (x = 0, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.07) have been studied systematically. It was found that with increasing Cr content, the resistivity increases, the charge-ordering transition temperature T^_CO shifts to low temperature, and the magnetic moment of the system is strengthened. From the temperature dependence of the ultrasonic velocities, one can establish that the Jahn-Teller energy and phonon exchange constant decrease with increasing Cr content.
