Abstract We report the successful fabrication of a new 1111-type bulk magnetic semiconductor (La,Ba)(Zn,Mn)SbO through the solid solution of (La,Ba) and (Zn,Mn) in the parent compound LaZnSbO. The polycrystalline samples (La,Ba)(Zn,Mn)SbO crystallize into ZrCuSiAs-type tetragonal structure, which has the same structure as iron-based superconductor LaFeAsO1-δ. The DC magnetization measurements indicate the existence of spin-glass ordering, and the coercive field is up to ~ 11500 Oe (1 Oe=79.5775 A·m-1). The AC magnetic susceptibility further determines that the samples evolve into a conventional spin-glass ordering state below the spin freezing temperature Tf. In addition, the negative magnetoresistance (MR ≡[ρ(H)-ρ(0)]/ρ(0)) reaches - 88% under 9 T.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
