Abstract

Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were collected for Pr0.7Ba0.3MnO3. This sample was prepared using the conventional solid state reaction by mixing Pr6O11, Mn2O3, and BaCO3 up to 99.9% purity at 1400 °C in air for 60 h. XRD analysis using the Rietveld method was carried out and it was found that this manganite sample has orthorhombic symmetry with Pnma space group. The lattice parameters are found to be a=5.4900 Å, b=7.7578 Å, and c=5.5227 Å.
