Abstract

In the present work, we have investigated the structural response of transition metal double perovskite oxide Nd2CoFeO6 under pressure by XRD and Raman spectroscopic measurements. From XRD data, we have observed a pressure-induced structural transition from the orthorhombic phase to the monoclinic phase at about 14.8 GPa. An anomalous increase in compressibility at a much lower pressure (∼1.1 GPa) is seen where no structural transition occurs. At about the same pressure, a sudden drop in the slope of the Raman shift is observed. Further investigation at low temperatures reveals that the B1g Raman mode is strongly affected by magnetic interactions. Additional high-pressure Raman experiments with the application of a magnetic field have indicated that the mentioned anomaly around 1.1 GPa can be explained by a high-spin to low-spin transition of Co3+.
