Abstract
The magnetotransport behaviors of a series of rare earth manganites with the same A -site cational mean radius and different A -site ionic radii variance (A -site disorder) are investigated. It is found that the system's ground state transforms from ferromagnetic metal to cluster-glass insulator with increasing A -site disorder. In the cluster-glass state, the magnetization shows the steplike behavior, indicating the existence of short-range magnetically ordered clusters. The significant effect of the A -site disorder on the electronic phase separation is revealed by detecting the cluster-glass ground state at low temperature.
