Critical Temperature of Ferromagnetic Transition in Three-Dimensional Double-Exchange Models

arXiv:cond-mat/0007408 · doi:10.1143/JPSJ.69.3785

Abstract

Ferromagnetic transition in three-dimensional double-exchange models is studied by the Monte Carlo method. Critical temperature is precisely determined by finite-size scaling analysis. Strong spin fluctuations in this itinerant system significantly reduce from mean-field estimates. By choosing appropriate parameters, obtained values of quantitatively agree with experiments for the ferromagnetic metal regime of (La,Sr)MnO, which is a typical perovskite manganite showing colossal magnetoresistance. This indicates that the double-exchange mechanism alone is sufficient to explain in this material. Critical exponents are also discussed.
