abstract = "A modified solid-state combustion route was developed for the preparation of nanocrystalline manganite La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 in a single-step process, using metal nitrates and glucose/KNO3 redox mixture. The obtained sample was found to crystallize within O type of orthorhombic perovskite structure (space group Pnma), without the presence of other structural phases or impurities. Nanoparticles are found to have particle size in the range 12-35 nm, and to be highly crystalline without the presence of amorphous surface layer. Magnetic measurements show that nanoparticles display bulk-like magnetic properties, with ferromagnetic phase transition at 125 K and the absence of superparamagnetic or spin-glass behavior.
