4 Mar 1999 | Journal: | Phys. Rev. B, 60(14), 9973-9977 (1999) | Subject: | Materials Science | cond-mat.mtrl-sci | Abstract: | The atomic pair distribution function (PDF) of stoichiometric LaMnO_3 has been measured. This has been fit with a structural model to extract the local Jahn-Teller distortion for an ideal Mn(3+)O_6 octahedron. These results are compared to Rietveld refinements of the same data which give the average structure. Since the local structure is being measured in the PDF there is no assumption of long-range orbital order and the real, local, Jahn-Teller distortion is measured directly. We find good agreement both with published crystallographic results and our own Rietveld refinements suggesting that in an accurately stoichiometric material there is long range orbital order as expected. The local Jahn-Teller distortion has 2 short, 2 medium and 2 long bonds. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/9903084 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
