The left-handed features of Sr doped manganite lanthanum ceramics La0.775Sr0.225MnO3 in the vicinity of its Curie temperature are studied. The left-handed features are responsible for appearance of the additional transparency peak in the forbidden band of the photonic crystal bounded with the above manganite. The magnitude of the critical exponent β (β ∼ 0.50) determined in the work agrees with results reported in the literature and allows supposing that long-range interactions play an important role in the phase transition from conductive ferromagnetic to nonconductive dielectric paramagnetic state of the manganite in its Curie point.
