摘要
Temperature-dependent thermal conductivity of polycrystalline BiFeO3, Bi0.9Ba0.05Ca0.05 FeO2.95 and Bi0.9Ca0.1FeO2.95 materials was measured using a direct heat pulse technique. Thermal conductivity of the BiFeO3-based materials is analyzed using a phonon model to probe the thermal transport mechanisms in these ferrites. It is found that the calculated thermal conductivity of the BiFeO3-based compounds is in good agreement with experimental data. The suppression of the low-temperature phonon peak in the thermal conductivity of the doped BiFeO3 materials is mainly attributed to the phonon-point-defect scattering. In addition, the contribution of optical phonon-magnon resonance scattering to optical phonon thermal transport reveals the presence of phonon-magnon coupling in these BiFeO3 materials. Finally, magneto-thermal conductivity measurements show the magnon thermal transport in pure and doped BiFeO3 systems.
