Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 3714–3717 (2000)Ferromagnetic, A-Type, and Charge-Ordered CE-Type States in Doped Manganites Using Jahn-Teller PhononsReceived 17 September 1999; published in the issue dated 17 April 2000 The two-orbital model for manganites with both noncooperative and cooperative Jahn-Teller phonons is studied at hole density x = 0.5 using Monte Carlo techniques. The phase diagram is obtained by varying the electron-phonon coupling and the t2g-spins exchange. The insulating CE-type charge- and orbital-ordered state with the z-axis charge stacking observed in narrow-bandwidth manganites is stabilized in the simulations. Its charge gap ΔCO is much larger than the critical temperature kBTCO. Metalliclike A-type and ferromagnetic states are also obtained in the same framework, and the phase boundaries among them have first-order characteristics. © 2000 The American Physical Society URL:
