As a quasi-one-dimensional spin frustrated material, Ca3Co2O6 has a series of interesting physical properties such as low-temperature spin freezing and multiple magnetized steps due to its unique structure. The magnetic properties of Ca3Co2O6 mainly come from Co ions, and the doping of different elements at the Co site has a great effect on the magnetic structure of Ca3Co2O6. At present, the magnetic research of Ca3Co2O6 and its related compounds mainly focuses on exploring the influence of other elements replacing Co sites. For example, non-magnetic Sc3+ can dilute the intrachain ferromagnetic exchange, while the doping of magnetic ions Mn4+, Fe3+ or Cr3+ can inhibit the intrachain ferromagnetic interaction and enhance the antiferromagnetic interchain interaction. Doping Ti4+ ions, which are high-valence non-magnetic ions, not only dilutes the magnetic interaction of Ca3Co2O6, but also changes the valence state of cobalt ions. i.e. it can convert part of Co3+ ions into Co2+ ions. Therefore, comparing with other doped ions, their introduction may have a more significant effect on the magnetoelectric properties of Ca3Co2O6. In this study, a series of Ca3Co2–xTixO6 (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) polycrystalline samples is prepared by sol-gel method. Their magnetic, dielectric and magnetodielectric properties are measured. The XRD patterns show that a small number of Ti4+ ions do not change the crystal structure of Ca3Co2O6. Due to the destruction of the long-range ferromagnetic correlation of Ca3Co2O6 by non-magnetic Ti4+ ions, the ferromagnetic interaction is inhibited to some extent. Because Ti4+ ions are non-magnetic ions, they cannot form antiferromagnetic coupling with Co ions, resulting in the decrease of the Curie-Weiss temperature(θ). The positive θ value and exchange constant still indicate that the ferromagnetic interaction is dominant in Ti4+ doped Ca3Co2–xTixO6 (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) samples. The substitution of non-magnetic ions Ti4+ for Co3+ ions also makes the effective magnetic moment of Ca3Co2–xTixO6 (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) monotonically decrease from μeff = 5.42μB for x = 0 to μeff = 5.18μB for x = 0.06. Accompanying the introduction of Ti4+ ions, the spin frustration of Ca3Co2O6 is released partly, thus gradually fading the magnetization steps of Ca3Co2O6. As the Ca3Co2O6 is a typical magnetodielectric material, the released spin frustration in Ti4+ doped samples and the variation of the subtle magnetic structure exert a large influence on the magnetodielectric coupling effect of Ca3Co2–xTixO6 (x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) compounds.
