Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

High-temperature synthesis according to ceramic technology is used to prepare new manganites NdMe3Sr3Mn4O12 (Me—Li, Na, K). The X-ray powder method is used to find that the compounds crystallize in tetragonal syngony, and the parameters of their crystal lattices are determined. The method of dynamic calorimetry is used in the range from 298.15 to 673 K for determining the heat capacity of manganites; in so doing, the presence of second-order phase transitions is revealed. In view of phase transitions, equations are derived which describe the dependence C ℴ ∼ f(T) in the range from 298.15 to 673 K. The temperature dependences of permittivity and electrical resistance of manganites are investigated at 303–503 K; these dependences likewise confirm the presence of second-order phase transitions.
