We find that the optical phonons of the Co-O stretching mode depend on temperature and the Rh content. Analysis with three Lorentz oscillators reveals that the spin state of Co^3+ in LaCo1−x RhxO3 can be understood in terms of a solid solution of low-spin- and high-spin-state Co^3+ ions, and the substituted Rh ion retains some fraction of the high-spin Co^3+ ions down to low temperature.}, pages = {235802--235802}, title = {Optical evidence for the spin-state disorder in LaCo1−x RhxO3}, volume = {29}, year = {2017} }
