The model which considered the influence of the final grain size on the the Jahn-Teller type structural phase transitions in non-stoichiometric oxides with the perovskite structure has been proposed. The microscopic description of the cooperative Jahn-Teller effect was suggested for the effects caused by mechanic activation of oxide systems up to nano sizes. The grain size decrease is shown to proceed along with abundant oxidation (as related to the coarse grain samples). The theoretical assumptions were found to correspond qualitatively with experimental data on the phase state of the mechanically activated NdMnO3+δ oxide.
