Research Abstract |
Transition metal oxides, such as manganese oxides and iron oxides, undergo charge/orbital ordering upon cooling, which is type of structural phase transformations. Researchers are interested in controlling the microstructure due to charge/orbital ordering (i.e., charge/orbital domains) by using electric field, magnetic field, and pressure. We attempted to reveal the mechanism underlying the external field-induced domain switching by using advanced techniques of transmission electron microscopy.
