“…As previously stated, there are many different compounds due to the fact that the A-site cation can be a lanthanide or a rare earth. Thus, a number of systems have been studied in the form of thin films including: La-Ca-Mn-O [1-3, 5, 14-24], La-Sr-Mn-O [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32], La-Ba-MnO [33][34][35], La-Pb-Mn-O [36][37][38][39][40], La-Mn-O [41][42][43], Nd-Sr-Mn-O [44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52], Sm-Sr-Mn-O [53,54], Pr-Ca-Mn-O [55][56][57][58][59], Pr-Sr-Mn-O [60][61][62][63][64], La-Sn-Mn-O [65], La-K-Mn-O [66], La-Ce-Mn-O [67] and Bi-Sr-Mn-O [68]. To detail the situation in terms of synthesis, this section is divided into three parts.…”
