Abstract: Sm$_2$Ti$_{2−x}$V$_x$O$_7$, a member of the rare-earth titanate pyrochlores, exhibits dipolar-octupolar antiferromagnetism below 𝑇$_𝑁$=0.35K. We observed two ferroelectric transitions at 182 (𝑇$_{FE1}$) and 52 K (𝑇$_{FE2}$), significantly higher than 𝑇$_𝑁$ for Sm$_2$⁢Ti$_{2−𝑥}$⁢V$_𝑥$⁢O$_7$ (𝑥=0,0.1). Although the ferroelectric transition temperatures remain unchanged, the polarization value decreases with V doping. A structural transition to a polar 𝑅⁢3⁢𝑚 rhombohedral phase from the cubic 𝐹⁡𝑑⁢$\bar{3}$𝑚 structure occurs at 𝑇$_{FE1}$ for the pristine compound, involving a distortion in the pyrochlore lattices formed by the Sm atoms. Remarkably, linear magnetoelectric coupling is observed in both compounds, with further enhancement of magnetoelectric (ME) coupling due to magnetic V doping. The existence of magnetoelectric coupling without long-range magnetic order is of fundamental interest for advancing the understanding and development of ME coupling.
