摘要
The multiferroic BiFe1-xZnxO3 (BFZO(x), x=0, 0.03, 0.06, and 0.09) films have been prepared on quartz substrates by the sal-gel technique. X-ray diffraction indicates that BFZO(x) films characterize the distorted rhombohedral perovskite structure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shows that Zn doping can improve the crystallinity of BFZO(x) (x=0.06 and 0.09) films. With increasing Zn composition, the fundamental absorption edges of BFZO(x) films show blue shift. Compared with BiFeO3 film, the saturation magnetization (M-s) of BFZO(x) (x=0.03, 0.06, and 0.09) films is significantly enhanced, which provides potential applications in information storage.
