Gadolinium doping effects on structural-, electronic transport and magnetic properties of Pr0.6Gd0.1Sr0.3MnO₃ (PGSMO) nanomanganite (40-65 nm) have been investigated. We have considered the core-shell structure of our PGSMO nanoparticles, which can explain its intriguing magnetic and transport properties. It is reported 65 nm sample exhibits higher metal to insulator transition temperature, TP (∼215 K) and less resistive behavior compare to its nano counterparts. Enhanced low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) is observed with a reduction of particle size; however maximum change in magnetoresistance (MR), ∼72% is recorded for 65 nm sample around TP at 60 kOe field. Low-temperature magnetization data reveals the existence of glassy phase in the compound. It is revealed that substitution of optimal Gd doping at A site on nanometric scale promotes exotic magnetic and transport properties on nanoscale without adding any external physical perturbation or introducing any significant lattice distortion. |
