Abstract

The temperature dependence of charge order in Fe2OBO3 was investigated by resistivity and differential scanning calorimetry measurements, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and synchrotron x-ray scattering, revealing an intermediate phase between room temperature and 340K, characterized by coexisting mobile and immobile carriers, and by incommensurate superstructure modulations with temperature-dependent propagation vector (12,0,τ). The incommensurate modulations arise from specific antiphase boundaries with low energy cost due to geometrical charge frustration.
