Magnetoelectric coupling tuned by competing anisotropies in
Abstract
A flop of electric polarization from P$$\|$$c (Pc) to P$$\|$$ a (Pa) is observed in MnTiO3 as a spin flop transtion is triggered by a c-axis magnetic field, H$$\|$$c=7 T. The critical magnetic field for Pa is significantly reduced in Mn1-xNixTiO3 (x=0.33). Neutron diffraction measurements revealed similar magnetic arrangements for the two compositions where the ordered spins couple antiferromagnetically with their nearest intra- and inter-planar neighbors. In the x=0.33 system, the single ion anisotropies of Mn2+ and Ni2+ compete and give rise to an additional spin reorientation transition at TR. A magnetic field, Hc, aligns the spins along c for TRN. The rotation of the collinear spins away from the c-axis for TR alters the magnetic point symmetry and gives rise to new ME susceptibility tensor form. Such linear ME response provides satisfactory explanation for behavior of field-induced electric polarization in both compositions. As the Ni content increases to x=0.5 and 0.68, the ME effect disappears as a new magnetic phase emerges.
