Nonlinear pressure dependence of T_N in almost multiferroic EuTiO₃

The antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase transition temperature T_N of EuTiO_3 has been studied as a function of pressure p. The data reveal a nonlinear dependence of T_N on p with T_N increasing with increasing pressure. The exchange interactions exhibit an analogous dependence on p as T_N (if the absolute value of the nearest neighbor interaction is considered) and there is evidence that the AFM transition is robust with increasing pressure. The corresponding Weiss temperature {\Theta}_W remains anomalous since it always exhibits positive values. The data are analyzed within the Bloch power law model and provide excellent agreement with experiment.
