Description

The low-temperature orbital ordering structure of Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 thin film on SrTiO3 (011) substrate (NSMO/STO011) has been clarified by resonant x-ray scattering. This thin film is the first example of the manganite thin film that has sharp metal-insulator transition, and synchrotron x-ray diffraction reveals the structure of the low-temperature orbital ordered phase. The orbital order structure was found to be the same as the structure of bulk Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3, while the tilt/rotation of the MnO6 octahedra were different
