Experiment : NQR spectra Non magnetic phase Magnetic phase (a) X=0.01 • Just bellow TN, • two types of signals (b) X=0.018 • Between TN and Tf , • two types of signals Phase separation NM and AFM (b) X=0.018 (a) X=0.01
Experiment : Internal field • Above Tf , • Hint is different Nh(0.01) ≦ Nh(0.018) • As T goes to 0K , • Hint has a same value. Tf Hole localization ?
Experiment : resistivity • Below TN , • the resistivity shows a metallic behavior • Below Tf , • the resistivity is semiconductive Hole localization Reference )
