Double manganite PrBaMn2O6 with ordered alternate stacking of PrMnO3/BaMnO3 layers attracts a special interest due to presence of two magnetic phase transitions close to room temperature; that makes it perspective magnetocaloric and magnetoresistive material. Besides the magnetic phase transition, the structural transition accompanied with the elongation of the a-axis and the contraction of the c-axis was experimentally detected. The origin of structural phase transition is studied by X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), IR absorption spectroscopy, magnetometry and dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) for electronic structure calculations. It is found that the structural phase transition is caused by splitting of eg-doublet states due to the tendency towards orbital ordering at the metal-insulator phase transition.
