(color online) (a) Crystal structure of Mn3O4 in the low-field monoclinic phase (top), intermediate undistorted tetragonal phase (middle), and high-field monoclinic phases (bottom). (b) Temperature dependence of T2g Mn–O stretch mode, showing a mode splitting due to the removal of mode degeneracy from tetragonal II to monoclinic I transition. The inset shows an expanded view from 10 to 300 K. (c) Magnetic field dependence of T2g mode at T = 7 K, showing the field-induced phase changes for H ∥ [1-10]. Reprinted with permission from Ref.
