The A-site-ordered/disordered manganese perovskites, RBaMn 2 O 6 /R 0.5 Ba 0.5 MnO 3 (R = Y and rare earth elements), are reviewed. RBaMn 2 O 6 displays remarkable features: (1) the charge/orbital order (CO) transition at relatively high temperatures far above 300 K, (2) a new stacking variation of the CE-type CO with a fourfold periodicity along the c-axis, (3) the presence of structural transition possibly accompanied by d x 2 -y 2 orbital order and (4) electronic phase segregation. These novel structural and electromagnetic properties are discussed in terms of the structural characteristic that the MnO 2 square sublattice is sandwiched by two types of rock-salt layer, RO and BaO, with different lattice sizes. Such structure introduces a strong frustration to the MnO 2 sublattice and gives a new perturbation to the competition of multiple degrees of freedom among charge, orbital, spin and lattice. In R 0.5 Ba 0.5 MnO 3 with a primitive cubic perovskite cell, on the other hand, the magnetic glassy states are dominant as the ground state. A peculiar behaviour, steplike ultrasharp magnetization and resistivity changes, has been observed in Pr 0.5 Ba 0.5 MnO 3 .
