Abstract

Tetragonal distorted spinel of CuMn2−xTixO4 (x = 0, 0.25 and 0.50) was prepared by solid state reaction method followed by neutron diffraction, FTIR spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. The confirmation regarding phase formation and identification of additional phase has been carried out by analysing the room temperature neutron diffraction. Besides, FTIR spectroscopy data have also assisted in ascertaining these results. Then, the magnetic susceptibility study of CuMn2O4 shows clearly the ferrimagnetic order below 76 K associated with meta-magnetic state of CuMn2O4 which turns into spin-glass behaviour in CuMn1.50Ti0.50O4. In addition, the room temperature M(H) of all the spinels are described by the Arrot’s plot for weak ferromagnetism. Further, the abrupt change in magnetic susceptibility due to Ti-substitution at room temperature is analysed by electrical property using complex dielectric spectroscopy measurements.
