Popis: High-field electron-spin-resonance (ESR) experiments have been carried out in single crystals of ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{x}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ in the concentration range $0l~xl~0.175.$ Different quasioptical arrangements have been utilized for frequencies $40l~\ensuremath{\nu}l~700 \mathrm{GHz}$ and for magnetic fields $Bl~12 \mathrm{T}.$ A splitting of the antiferromagnetic resonance (AFMR) mode is observed in the magnetic field for the parent compound ${\mathrm{LaMnO}}_{3},$ in agreement with the antiferromagnetic structure of this material. Abrupt changes in the AFMR frequencies have been observed around $x\ensuremath{\simeq}0.025,$ and were attributed to a transition between a pure antiferromagnetic and a canted state. For increasing Sr doping the observed AFMR modes are split even in a zero field, which can be naturally explained using a concept of a canted magnetic structure for $xl0.1.$ In ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.825}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.175}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ the ESR spectra are consistent with the ferromagnetic and metallic state. The lines of ferromagnetic resonance and ferromagnetic antiresonance can be clearly observed. For intermediate concentrations $0.1l~xl~0.15$ complicated ESR spectra were observed, which can be well explained by a single ferromagnetic resonance mode and taking electrodynamic effects into account.
