The effect of cationic and anionic orderings on the crystal structure and magnetic properties of substituted rare-earth cobaltites Gd{sub 0.1}Sr{sub 0.9}CoO{sub 3 – δ} was studied using X-ray diffraction, measurement of XANES spectra, and magnetic and thermodynamic characteristics. The effects of ordering cause a decrease in symmetry to tetragonal and a distortion of the coordination octahedra of CoO{sub 6}. Anomalous magnetic and thermodynamic quantities are observed at 260 and 360 K, respectively, for disordered and ordered samples. The XANES spectra measured at the CoK edge did not reveal a noticeable shift in the absorption edge compared with the spectrum of original GdCoO{sub 3}. This suggests that the charge compensation process is associated not only with a change in the electronic state of cobalt ions, but also with the emergence of holes in the 2p states of oxygen.
