Absorption peak splitting corresponding to the stretching oscillation of the Mn-O bond, together with a shift of peak position, is observed below the Curie temperature. These features weaken and even disappear as the samples are warmed up to the Curie temperature, which indicates that this anomaly may be a result of phase separation in the compounds.展开更多
