Magnetic ordering in the geometrically frustrated magnetic oxide spinels MgCr_2O_4 and ZnCr_2O_4 is accompanied by a structural change that helps relieve the frustration. Analysis of high-resolution synchrotron X-ray scattering reveals that…

The phase diagram of $Pr_{1-x}Ca_xMnO_3$ is modified x $\le$ 0.3, which suggests a reevaluation of the phase diagram of other manganites in that doping region. Rather than an orbital ordered phase reaching up to high temperatures of…

Evidence has been found for a change in the ordered occupation of the vanadium d-orbitals at the 77K phase transition in YVO3, manifested by a change in the type of Jahn-Teller distortion. The orbital ordering above 77K is not destroyed at…

It is demonstrated that under common conditions a molecular solid subject to Jahn-Teller interactions supports stable Q-ball-like non-topological solitons. Such solitons represent a localized lump of excess electric charge in periodic…

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…

At room temperature, bulk La$_{7/8}$Sr$_{1/8}$MnO$_3$ is in the dynamic Jahn--Teller O$^*$ phase, but undergoes a transition to a static, magnetically ordered Jahn--Teller phase at lower temperatures. Here we study a $6$ unit cells thin…
