We present a study of the structure, the electric resistivity, the magnetic susceptibility, and the thermal expansion of La$_{1-x}$Eu$_x$CoO$_3$. LaCoO$_3$ shows a temperature-induced spin-state transition around 100 K and a metal-insulator…

For many years a spin-state transition at $T \approx 100 K$ and insulator - metal transition (IMT) at $T_{IMT} \approx 600 K$ in LaCoO$_3 $ remains a mystery. Small low-spin - high-spin spin gap $\Delta _S = E\left( {HS} \right) - E\left(…

The spin transition in LaCoO3 is investigated by temperature-dependent resonant soft X-ray emission spectroscopy near the Co 2p absorption edges. This element-specific technique is more bulk sensitive with respect to the temperature induced…

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…

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…

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…

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…

The electronic structure of the perovskite La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$CoO$_3$ has been obtained as a function of Sr substitution and volume from a series of generalized-gradient-corrected, full-potential, spin-density-functional band structure…

We report the continuous variation of the spin moment of cobalt in LaCoO3 across its temperature and pressure-induced spin transitions evidenced with K\beta emission spectra. The first thermal transition is best described by a transition to…

The spin transition in LaCoO$_3$ has been investigated within the density-functional theory + dynamical mean-field theory formalism using continuous time quantum Monte Carlo. Calculations on the experimental rhombohedral atomic structure…

\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 measurements of the magnetic susceptibility and of the thermal expansion of a LaCoO$_3$ single crystal. Both quantities show a strongly anomalous temperature dependence. Our data are consistently described in terms of a…

We study energetics and the nature of both homogeneous and mixed spin (MS) states in LaCoO$_3$ incorporating structural changes of the crystal volume expansion and the Co-O bond disproportionation (BD) during the spin-state transition using…

The variational cluster approximation is applied to the calculation of thermodynamical quantities and single-particle spectra of LaCoO3. Trial self-energies and the numerical value of the Luttinger-Ward functional are obtained by exact…

We investigate lattice dynamics in LaCoO$_3$ using inelastic neutron and x-ray scattering over $T = 2\mbox{-}650\,\mathrm{K}$, spanning the spin-state crossover at $T_{1} \approx 100\,\mathrm{K}$ and the insulator--metal transition at…

We carried out temperature-dependent (20 - 550 K) measurements of resonant inelastic X-ray scattering on LaCoO$_3$ to investigate the evolution of its electronic structure across the spin-state crossover. In combination with charge-transfer…

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…

We investigate the spin state of LaCoO3 using state-of-the-art photoemission spectroscopy and ab initio band structure calculations. The GGA+U calculations provide a good description of the ground state for the experimentally estimated…

Spin-state crossover beyond a conventional ligand-field theory has been a fundamental issue in condensed matter physics. Here, we report microscopic observations of spin states and low-energy dynamics through orbital-resolved NMR…

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…
