CaMnO3 is a simple bi-partite antiferromagnet(AF) which can be continuously electron-doped up to LaMnO3. Electrons enter the doubly degenerate E_g subshell with spins aligned to the S=3/2 core of Mn^4+ (T_2g^3)$. We take the Hubbard and…

At 750K, LaMnO_3 has a cooperative Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion, with Mn atoms in distorted oxygen octahedra. This lifts the degeneracy of the singly-occupied $e_g$ orbitals of the Mn$^{3+}$ ions, which then become orbitally ordered. We use…
