Abstract
A detailed electronic phase diagram of perovskite-type oxides () was established by synchrotron x-ray diffraction, magnetization, and transport measurements for polycrystalline samples synthesized by a high-pressure technique. Among three kinds of helimagnetic phases in at zero field, two of them showing multiple- helimagnetic spin textures tend to rapidly disappear in cubic symmetry upon the La substitution with less than 0.1, which accompanies the loss of metallic nature. On the other hand, the third helimagnetic phase apparently remains robustly in with higher than 0.1, followed by merging to the spin/charge ordered phase with . We propose an important role of itinerant ligand holes on the emergence of multiple- states and a possible link between the third (putative single-) helimagnetic phase in and the spin/charge ordered phase in .
