Abstract

We establish a novel mechanism of stripe formation in doped systems with alternating t2gt_{2g} orbital order --- the stripe takes the form of a ferro-orbitally ordered domain wall separating domains with staggered order and allowing for deconfined motion of holes along the stripe. At a finite level of hole concentration this gives rise to the stability of this solitonic type of stripes, while we show that the phase change of the staggered order by π\pi plays a minor role in orbitally ordered systems. These results shed new light on the physics of doped materials in which orbital degeneracy is present.
