Abstract
The perovskite undergoes a remarkable sequence of charge-disproportionation (CD) and charge-transfer (CT) transitions on cooling due to competing electronic instabilities: . The accompanying changes in charge and spin ordering have been determined from neutron diffraction and physical property measurements. The CT phase adopts a simple -type antiferromagnetic structure of spins but the CD phase adopts an unusual charge and magnetic arrangement in which spins are antiferromagnetically ordered but the moments have no long-range order due to magnetic frustration and form a spin glass at low temperatures.
