Raman imaging of ferroelastically configurable Jahn–Teller domains in LaMnO3
Abstract The Jahn–Teller (JT) effect, through geometric deformation of molecules or local ionic lattices, lowers the overall energy of the system by removing electron degeneracy from partially occupied orbitals. Crystal symmetry lowered by JT distortion inevitably creates multiple variants of elasti...
