AbstractIn complex transition-metal oxides, the interactions between the electronic spins, charges, and orbitals produce a rich variety of electronic phases. The competition and/or cooperation among these correlated-electron phases can lead to the emergence of surprising electronic phenomena and functionalities and form the basis for a new type of electronics.

Transition metal oxides with strongly correlated d-electrons show an astonishing variety of properties. This is largely determined by an interplay of different degrees of freedom: charge, spin, orbital, lattice ones. Often there appear in them various superstructures. In this talk I will consider different types of superstructures in transition metal oxides, especially charge and orbital ordering, willdiscuss the main mechanisms leading to their formation and consider specific examples of superstructures in manganites, cobaltites and in some frustrated systems. Relative role of purely electronic mechanisms and of the electron-phonon interaction will be discussed. In particular, I will show that the elastic interactions can naturally lead to different superstructures, including stripes. Special features of charge and, especially, orbital ordering in frustrated systems, where frustrations may be caused both by the geometric structure of the lattice and by the special features of orbital interactions, will be considered, and it will be shown that the order-from-disorder mechanism can lead to a unique ordered ground state in many of these cases..

It has been known for a long time that electron irradiation induces damage in maximal valence transition metal oxides such as TiO2, V2O5, and WO3, of which transition metal ions have an empty d-shell. This type of damage is excited by electronic transition and can be explained by the Knoteck-Feibelman mechanism (K-F mechanism). Although the K-F mechanism predicts that no damage should occur in transition metal oxides of which the transition metal ions have a partially filled d-shell, namely submaximal valence transition metal oxides, our recent study on ReO3 shows that submaximal valence transition metal oxides undergo damage during electron irradiation.ReO3 has a nearly cubic structure and contains a single unit in its cell: a = 3.73 Å, and α = 89°34'. TEM specimens were prepared by depositing dry powders onto a holey carbon film supported on a copper grid. Specimens were examined in Hitachi H-9000 and UHV H-9000 electron microscopes both operated at 300 keV accelerating voltage. The electron beam flux was maintained at about 10 A/cm2 during the observation.
