We report a magnetostriction study of a perovskite $\rm{LaCoO}_{3}$ above 100 T using our state-of-the-art strain gauge to investigate an interplay between electron correlations and spin crossover. There has been a controversy regarding…

In the scientific description of unconventional transport properties of oxides (spin-dependent transport, superconductivity etc.), the spin-state degree of freedom plays a fundamental role. Because of this, temperature- or magnetic…

Magnetization measurements of LaCoO$_{3}$ have been carried out up to 133 T generated with a destructive pulse magnet at a wide temperature range from 2 to 120 K. A novel magnetic transition was found at $B>100$ T and $T>T^{*}=32\pm 5$ K…

The electronic structure of the perovskite LaCoO$_3$ for different spin states of Co ions was calculated in the LDA+U approach. The ground state was found to be a nonmagnetic insulator with Co ions in a low-spin state. Somewhat higher in…

The magnetic moment induced by an external magnetic field of 5.8 T on the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3 has been measured by polarized neutron diffraction. Measurements were made at 100 K, near to the spin-state transition, at 1.5 K and at 285 K. The…

\lco{} is known for its two-step spin crossover as a function of temperature. Despite efforts spanning over half a century, the origin of this phenomenon is still debated, particularly regarding how the microscopic spin states are involved…

We present first principles LDA+U calculations of electronic structure and magnetic state for LaCoO3 and HoCoO3. Low Spin to Intermediate Spin state transition was found in our calculations using experimental crystallographic data for both…

The spin states and electronic structure of layered perovskite La1.5Ca0.5CoO4 are investigated using fullpotential linearized augmented plane-wave method. All the computational results indicate that the Co2+ ion is in a high-spin state and…

The family of hole-doped Pr-based perovskite cobaltites, Pr$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$CoO$_{3}$ and (Pr$_{1-y}$RE$_{y}$)$_{0.3}$Ca$_{0.7}$CoO$_{3}$ (where RE is rare earth) has recently been found to exhibit simultaneous metal-insulator, spin-state,…

We use the LDA+U method to study the possibility of exciton condensation in perovskites of transition metals with $d^6$ electronic configuration such as LaCoO$_3$. For realistic interaction parameters we find several distinct solutions…

We study the magnetic susceptibility of mixed-valent La2-xSrxCoO4 single crystals in the doping range of 0.5<= x <= 0.8 for temperatures up to 1000 K. The magnetism below room temperature is described by paramagnetic Co2+ in the high-spin…

A gradual spin-state transition occurs in LaCoO3 around T~80-120 K, whose detailed nature remains controversial. We studied this transition by means of inelastic neutron scattering (INS), and found that with increasing temperature an…

Using soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy and magnetic circular dichroism at the Co-$L_{2,3}$ edge we reveal that the spin state transition in LaCoO$_{3}$ can be well described by a low-spin ground state and a triply-degenerate high-spin…

The samples LaCoO3 with dilute substitutions on cobalt sites have been studied using the resistivity, thermopower and magnetic susceptibility measurements over the temperature range up to ~900 K. The Co-site substitution does not affect the…

The structural properties of LaCoO3 were studied by means of high-resolution neutron powder diffraction in the temperature range 5<T<1000 K. Changes of the Co+3 spin states in this temperature interval are shown to affect not only the unit…

We study the structural, magnetic, transport and electronic properties of LaCoO$_3$ with Sr/Nb co-substitution, i.e., La$_{(1-2x)}$Sr$_{2x}$Co$_{(1-x)}$Nb$_{x}$O$_3$ using x-ray and neutron diffraction, dc and ac-magnetization, neutron…

Motivated by recent observation of magnetic field induced transition in LaCoO3 we study the effect of external field in systems close to instabilities towards spin-state ordering and exciton condensation. We show that, while in both cases…

Synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction experiments reveal that the transition from a magnetic intermediate spin (IS) state to a nonmagnetic low-spin (LS) ground state in LaCoO3 normally observed when cooling, manifests itself under pressure…

Magnetic anisotropy has been measured for the ferromagnetic La0.7Sr0.3CoO3 perovskite from an analysis of the high-field part of the magnetization vs. field curves, i.e., the magnetic saturation regime. These measurements give a magnetic…
