In high entropy oxides, competition between many different magnetic exchange interactions leads to mixed magnetic states. We have grown thin films of La(Cr0.2Mn0.2Fe0.2Co0.2Ni0.2)O3 (L5BO), which normally shows an antiferromagnetic ground state, but this should shift to a ferromagnetic ground state as the concentration of Mn increases. We aim to investigate how L5BO performs as a spintronic oxide at the transition point between ferro- and antiferromagnetism.
