  • Abstract
    Electronic structures of orthorhombic perovskite-type manganites (OM) and hexagonal manganites (HM) are compared by using X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy. This study reveals that the environments around Mn and O ions in both the systems are different. These are reflected primarily in the lifting of degeneracy of the Mn 3d orbitals. Interestingly, the unoccupied Mn 3 d x 2 − y 2 orbital in HM is strongly hybridized with O 2p states and appears to be responsible for both long range orderings: ferroelectric ordering at high temperatures and ferromagnetic ordering at low temperatures.
