摘要:
A series of Bi(1-x)A(x)FeO(3) (A = Ba2+, Sm3+) compounds have been synthesized in order to reveal the influence of oxygen vacancies on the magnetic behavior of BiFeO3. While the rhombohedral structure is retained for all compositions (0 <= x <= 0.2), the Ba2+ and Sm3+ substitution induces different structural disorder, leading to an enhancement in magnetization. Temperature dependence of magnetization between 300 K and 900 K indicates that the increased oxygen vacancy due to Ba2+ substitution gradually turns the original antiferromagnetic behavior of BiFeO3 into a ferromagnetic one. In contrast, the antiferromagnetic nature of BiFeO3 is maintained in the whole Sm3+ substitution range, in which the concentration of oxygen vacancies is preserved. This result reveals unambiguously that the oxygen vacancies also play a crucial role in deciding the magnetic behavior of BiFeO3. The intrinsic magnetic property of BiFeO3 is originated from not only the Fe3+/Fe3+ but also the unbalanced Fe3+/Fe2+ antiferromagnetic superexchange interactions. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.
