dc.descriptionNanoparticles (size 20, 40 and 60 nm) of Pr_0.5Sr_0.5MnO_3 are prepared by sol-gel technique and their magnetic properties are studied using ferromagnetic resonance and magnetization measurements. A comparison with the properties of the bulk material shows that the ferromagnetic transition at 265 K remains unaffected but the anti-ferromagnetic transition at T_N = 150 K disappears in the nanoparticles. Further, the temperature dependence of magnetic anisotropy shows a complex behavior, being higher in the nanoparticles at high temperatures and lower at lower temperatures in comparison with the bulk.
