Abstract
The structural changes of undoped LaMnO3 under high hydrostatic pressure and their relation to the electronic properties were studied. The pronounced cooperative Jahn-Teller distortion and the GdFeO3-type distortion decreased with increasing pressure. Evidence was obtained that LaMnO3 is a Mott insulator.
