Single crystal structural study of the charge ordered phase of Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3: electronic localization beyond the atomic level

A. Daoud-Aladine, J. Rodriguez-Carvajal, L. Pinsard-Gaudart +2

In the R1/2D1/2MnO3 manganites (R: rare earth, D: divalent cation), the structural phase transition at Tco is commonly interpreted as a concomitant charge and orbital ordering (CO/…
