Physical chemistry

geometric distortion of a nonlinear molecule or ion with a degenerate electronic ground state, which lowers its symmetry and removes the degeneracy.

In physical chemistry, Jahn-Teller effect refers to geometric distortion of a nonlinear molecule or ion with a degenerate electronic ground state, which lowers its symmetry and removes the degeneracy. This meaning comes from Jahn (1937) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A - Mathematical and Physical Sciences.[1]
