Abstract

The effect of pressure on the metal-insulator transition in manganites with a broad range of bandwidths is investigated. A critical pressure is found at which the metal-insulator transition temperature, T $_{MI}$ , reaches a maximum value in every sample studied. The origin of this universal pressure and the relation between the pressure effect and the bandwidth on the metal-insulator transition are discussed.
