Mixed orbital states and modulated crystal structures in La1−x Ca x MnO3 deduced from synchrotron X-ray diffraction
Abstract In the model manganese perovskites La1−x Ca x MnO3, several important phenomena have been observed, including ferromagnetic metallic/insulating states, colossal magnetoresistance effects, and charge- and orbital-ordered states. In the past, only compounds with x = 1/2, 2/3 and 3/4 and an in...
