Understanding the insulating phase in colossal magnetoresistance manganites: Shortening of the Jahn-Teller long-bond across the phase diagram of La1-xCaxMnO3
The detailed evolution of the magnitude of the local Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion in La1-xCaxMnO3 is obtained across the phase diagram for 0≤x≤0.5 from high-quality neutron diffraction data using the atomic pair distribution function method. A local JT distortion is observed in the insulating phase f...
