It is shown that the time-reversal symmetry is broken during the phase transition causing orbital ordering in a crystal with Jahn-Teller (J-T) ions. This means that such phase transitions are magnetic ones. As an example we have considered…
The properties of transition metal compounds are largely determined by nontrivial interplay of different degrees of freedom: charge, spin, lattice, but also orbital ones. Especially rich and interesting effects occur in systems with orbital…
