The nano-Ln_1*xSr_xMnO₃ perovskites (where Ln is La, Sm or Tb) are the important materials for the Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). In present work, the glycine/nitrate powder synthesis has been described using a unique combination of metal nitrates and glycine stoichiometrically, which produces nano-particles. The obtained nano-powders have been characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) studies. The effect of grain sizes of nano-crystallites on the optical, magnetic and electrical properties has been studied and discussed.
