Abstract
Double perovskite Nd2CoMnO6 thin films have been grown epitaxially on SrTiO3 substrates using pulsed laser deposition and their structural, magnetic, and dielectric properties were investigated. Temperature dependent dielectric (epsilon) constant is measured in the frequency range between 1 kHz and 1MHz under applied magnetic fields up to 0.5 kOe. The dielectric constant exhibits an anomaly near to the Curie temperature which is independent of magnetic field and can be corroborated with a loop opening temperature in zero-field-cooled and field-cooled magnetization measurements. While, a linear relationship between magnetodielectric constant, delta epsilon(MD), and M-2(magnetization) in the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic regime proves magnetodielectric coupling between ferroelectric and ferromagnetic orders in this single-phase perovskite system.
