Neutron diffraction, x-ray diffraction, and specific heat studies of orbital ordering in YVO3

Neutron diffraction, synchrotron x-ray diffraction, and specific heat studies have been carried out to investigate the nature of the ordered occupation of the vanadium d orbitals in perovskite ${\mathrm{YVO}}_{3}.$ Evidence has been found for a change in the type of orbital ordering at the 77-K phas...
