Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of the Jahn-Teller distortion of MnO6 octahedra in RMnO3 perovskites (R = Pr, Nd, Dy, Tb, Ho, Er, Y): a neutron diffraction study.

TL;DR: All of the perovskites show a distortion of the MnO6 octahedra due to the orbital ordering characteristic of the Jahn-Teller effect of Mn3+ cations, and the stability of the crystal structure is also discussed in light of bond-valence arguments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charge Disproportionation in R NiO 3 Perovskites: Simultaneous Metal-Insulator and Structural Transition in YNiO 3

TL;DR: The first observation of changes in the crystal symmetry at the metal-insulator transition in perovskites was made in this article, where the authors reported the presence of two alternating NiO octahedra with expanded (Ni1) and contracted (Ni2) Ni-O bonds and a magnetic structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic structure of hexagonal R MnO 3 ( R = Y , Sc ) : Thermal evolution from neutron powder diffraction data

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetic structures of the hexagonal oxides of the space group (P6}-3cm) have been studied by neutron-diffraction experiments on powder samples, and it has been complemented with magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Finding universal correlations between cationic disorder and low field magnetoresistance in FeMo double perovskite series.

TL;DR: The presence of a moderate level of antisite disorder is at the very root of low field magnetoresistance although effects such as disorder distribution, connectivity, or morphology add their contribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charge ordering as alternative to jahn-teller distortion

TL;DR: In this paper, the Mott transition in orbitally degenerate systems can be lifted via a novel intermediate phase with a charge (rather than orbital) ordering, which can be viewed as an alternative to a Jahn-Teller distortion.
