Silver ions substituted samarium strontium manganite (Sm0.55Sr0.30Ag0.15MnO3) pervoskite was synthesized by using respective oxides in stoichiometric ratio through solid state reaction.The as-prepared sample was characterized by various analytical techniques to confirm its formation and understand the effect of monovalent silver ions in pervoskite lattice.X-ray diffraction patt confirms the single phase formation while grain morphology in SEM image indicates good connectivity among the grains.The enhancement in metal to insulator transition temperature shows quenched disorder and magnetoresistance phenomena.The magnetoresistance (MR) and temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) emerge from grain growth factor and homogeneity induced by Ag+ ions in the lattice.The reduction in hysteresis loss resulted from antiferromagnetic ferromagnetic (TN) and ferromagnetic-paramagnetic (Tc) transitions reveals the removal of disorder in perovskite lattice by Ag+ ions substitution.This increases the magnetic moment across distinct ions on the applying magnetic field.The rise in MR％ (～99％) with silver doping emerging from smooth spin tunneling of the grains across the boundary and suppression of the disordered magnetic fluctuations with increase in magnetic field has been reported.The present compound exhibits the first order nature of magnetism and observed first time the highest value of TCR ～ 95％.
