Abstract
Using the white line intensities, electron energy-loss spectroscopy in a transmission electron microscope has been employed to characterize the valence conversion and oxygen vacancies in La1−xCaxMnO3−y. For a nominal doping composition x=0.33, the ratio of Mn4+ to Mn3+ is determined to be more than 0.25 but less than 0.5, and the content of oxygen vacancy y is no more than 0.065 (equivalent to 2.2 at. % of the oxygen content). At ymax=0.065, 60% of the residual charge introduced by Ca doping is balanced by the conversion of Mn3+to Mn4+ and 40% by oxygen vacancy.
