LaMnO$_3$ is considered as a prototypical Jahn-Teller perovskite compound, exhibiting a metal to insulator transition at $T_{JT} = 750K$ related to the joint appearance of an electronic orbital ordering and a large lattice Jahn-Teller…
We report on high-temperature electron spin resonance studies of a detwinned LaMnO$_3$ single crystal across the Jahn-Teller transition at $T_{\rm JT}$ = 750 K. The anisotropy of the linewidth and g-factor reflects the local Jahn-Teller…
Using the multiband $d-p$ model and unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation we investigate the electronic structure and spin-orbital order in three-dimensional MnO$_3$ lattice such as realized in LaMnO$_3$. The orbital order is induced and…
Distortions of the oxygen sublattice couple to $e_g$ orbitals of Mn$^{3+}$ and drive a cooperative Jahn-Teller (orbital ordering) transition in LaMnO$_3$. A simple model for this transition is studied. Without further adjustment, the model…
Resonant soft x-ray diffraction has been used to probe the temperature dependent orbital and magnetic structure of $\mathrm{LaSr_{2}Mn_{2}O_7}$. Previous crystallographic studies have shown that this material has almost no MnO$_{6}$ oxygen…
Using elastic and inelastic neutron scattering, we investigated the evolution of the local atomic structure and lattice dynamics of La(1-x)Sr(x)CoO3 (x=0-0.5) as it crosses over with x from an insulator to a ferromagnetic metal (FMM). Our…
One- and multi-phonon excitations of the single crystalline LaCoO3 were studied using Raman spectroscopy in the temperature region of 5 K - 300 K. First-order Raman spectra show a larger number of phonon modes than allowed for the…
In magnetic compounds with Jahn-Teller (JT) ions (such as Mn3+ or Cu2+), the ordering of the electron or hole orbitals is associated with cooperative lattice distortions. There the role of JT effect, although widely recognised, is still…
The functional properties of transition metal perovskite oxides are known to result from a complex interplay of magnetism, polarization, strain, and stoichiometry. Here, we show that for materials with a cooperative Jahn-Teller distortion,…
We study single hole motion in LaMnO$_3$ using the classical approximation for JT lattice distortions, a modified Lang-Firsov approximation for dynamical breathing-mode phonons, and the self-consistent Born approximation (verified by exact…
We present a revised atomistic picture of the order-disorder transition in the archetypal orbital-ordered perovskite material, LaMnO$_{3}$. Our study uses machine-learning-driven molecular-dynamics simulations which describe the temperature…
Resonant behavior of the Raman process is predicted when the laser frequency is close to the orbital excitation energy of LaMnO3 at 2 eV. The incident photon creates a vibrationally excited self-trapped ``orbiton'' state from the…
The origin of the cooperative Jahn-Teller distortion and orbital-order in LaMnO3 is central to the physics of the manganites. The question is complicated by the simultaneous presence of tetragonal and GdFeO3-type distortions and the strong…
We present powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction data as evidence for a monoclinic distortion in the low spin (S=0) and intermediate spin state (S=1) of LaCoO3. The alternation of short and long bonds in the ab plane indicates the…
A classical model for the lattice distortions of $\lax$ is derived and, in a mean field approximation, solved. The model is based on previous work by Kanamori and involves localized Mn d-electrons (which induce tetragonal distortions of the…
To understand the orbital ordering of $LaMnO_3$ in the ground state, we study it in the A-type spin antiferromagnetic state. We calculate the two-dimensional response functions associated with the Jahn-Teller $Q_2$ and $Q_3$ distortions and…
The interactions between $e_g$ orbitals in neighboring sites are investigated in LaMnO$_3$ by taking into account virtual exchange of electrons and phonons. The spin and orbital ordering temperatures and the spin wave dispersion relation…

Rare earth perovskites ($R^{3+}$M$^{3+}$O$_3$), with $e_g^1$ electronic occupation of the M $d$ states, display different types of metal-insulator transition. For manganites (M=Mn), metal-insulator transition is usually induced by the…
