Intrinsic and extrinsic inhomogeneities in mixed-valence manganites

Abstract

It is suggested that extrinsic inhomogeneities in mixed-valence manganites deserve more attention and they should be taking into account on equal footing with hypothetical phase separation while examinating experimental data and developing the theoretical models of influence of stoichiometric and other types of inhomogeneities on properties of these and other transition-metal oxides.
