A tight-band model is employed for the $e_{2g}$-orbitals in manganites. It is shown that a large intraatomic Hund's coupling, $J_H$ and the resulting double-exchange mechanism lead to antiferromagnetic ordering along one of the cubic axis…

CaCu$_3$Fe$_4$O$_{12}$ exhibits a temperature-induced transition from a ferrimagnetic-insulating phase, in which Fe appears charge disproportionated, as Fe$^{3+}$ and Fe$^{5+}$, to a paramagnetic-metallic phase at temperatures above 210 K,…
