Abstract:
The evolution of various spin structures in Yb doped GdMnO3 distorted orthorhombic perovskite system was investigated from their magnetic, dielectric and magnetodielectric characteristics. The Gd1-x Yb x MnO3 (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 0.15) revealed an enhanced magnetodielectric coupling when their magnetic structure is guided from ab to the bc-cycloidal spin structure upon Yb doping. The compounds exhibit magnetic field and temperature controlled spin-flop from c to a-axis. Additionally, magnetodielectric reversal is observed for the x = 0.1 sample which depends on both magnetic field and temperature. The resultant correlation between magnetic and electric orderings is discussed in the frame of symmetric and antisymmetric exchange interaction models. These findings provide further insight in understanding the magnetoelectric materials and importantly show a way to tune the magnetic and magnetodielectric properties towards better application potential.

Spin–Spin Coupling Constant: Overview
Qualitatively, any spin plus-half nucleus polarizes the spins of its electrons to the minus-half state. Consequently, the paired electron in the hydrogen–carbon bond must...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the involved orbitals. The...
