Crystal structure and magnetic properties of Bi0.8A0.2FeO3 (A = La, Ca, Sr, Ba) multiferroics using neutron diffraction and Mossbauer spectroscopy

Abstract: Bi0.8A0.2FeO3 (A = La, Ca, Sr, Ba) multiferroics were studied using x-ray, neutron diffraction and magnetization techniques. All the samples crystallized in rhombohedral structure with space group R3c. The compounds exhibit antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering at 300 K and no evidence of further structural or magnetic transition was observed on lowering of temperature below it. The magnetic structure of these substituted compounds are found to be collinear G-type AFM structure as against the non collinear incommen… Show more

“…Thereby, an A site substitution provokes the transition of spatially modulated spin structure to a homogeneously canted spin structure. In the literature, such behaviour is confirmed through neutron diffraction for BBFO [62]. Thus, the origin of weak ferromagnetism in substituted BFO is attributed to Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction causes canting of spin to induce such magnetisation.…”

“…Thus, the origin of weak ferromagnetism in substituted BFO is attributed to Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction causes canting of spin to induce such magnetisation. The induced magnetisation in substituted BFO proportionally depends on the ionic size of the substituted cations in the A site and also due to the degree of FeO 6 distortion [13,14,62]. The theoretical result also suggests that ferromagnetism phase is stable in distorted structure [31] and structural distortion is a result of strain, which induces magnetisation in the samples [63].…”
