Abstract. This research describes the synthesis and characterization of the Pr1.5Eu1.5Ba5Cu8O18 system, obtained by the solid-state reaction method. For the synthesis of this material, oxides of Pr6O11, Eu2O3, BaO and CuO were used. The sintering temperature was 900°C. The structural analysis of the synthesized systems was carried out using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), with a comparison with theoretical patterns and validated with Rietveld refinement analysis, obtaining a type P2mm crystallographic orthorhombic system with a=3.892454Å, b=3.894411Å and c=31.155851Å. The characterization by means of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) let us conclude that the material presents homogeneous granular morphology. Finally, the magnetic response of this material is determined by the magnetization curves as a function of the applied magnetic field 50K and as a function of temperature 2000Oe.
Abstract. This work reports on the synthesis and characterization of the Bix-1SmxFeO3 (x=0.04 and 0.07) systems, produced by the solid-state reaction method. The samples obtained were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Rietveld refinement and magnetization measurements as a function of the magnetic field applied and temperature. The structural characterization was performed by Rietveld refinement and allowed the identification of a perovskite type structure on all the materials with rhombohedral crystalline system and R3C space group. The characterization by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) allowed to determine that the sintered solids present a homogenous microstructure. The magnetization curves as a function of magnetic field applied at 50 and 300K and as a function of the temperature at 5000Oe of the sintered solids exhibited a ferromagnetic behavior, with a rise of the permanent magnetization (Mr), the coercive field (Hc) and the magnetic susceptibility when the samarium concentration rose up. The structural and magnetic characteristics that are generated in the obtained solids make these materials of great interest as multiferroic components.
