Electron spin resonance probed suppressing of the cycloidal spin structure in doped bismuth ferrites

Abstract: The weak magnetism of bismuth ferrites Bi1−xDyxFeO3 with x=0.0 to 0.40 is studied via the electron spin resonance (ESR) of X-band (9.53 GHz) at various temperatures. The g-factor of pure BiFeO3 is 2.0, which originates from its cycloidal spin structure; while for the doped Bi1−xDyxFeO3 samples with x>0.10, ESR spectra reveal a second phase with a different g-factor around 1, which is attributed to the homogeneous magnetized phase of Bi1−xDyxFeO3. The temperature dependent ESR data further suggest a pict… Show more

“…The LF resonance with g -factor near 4 has a characteristic of magnetically isolated high spin Fe 3+ ( S = 5/2) in a low symmetric environment, which corresponds to the defect complexes, e.g., defect dipoles. On the other hands, the HF resonance with g -factor close to 2 can be ascribed to the Fe ions and is correlated with the resonant absorption in the cycloidal spin structure and the defect induced free spins2930. Furthermore, a striking absorption splits into two peaks in the Mn-doped BFO spectra, indicating that the magnetic environment for the unpaired electrons in Fe ions has significantly changed due to the Mn ion substitution and the existence of Fe 3+ -exchange-coupled magnetic secondary phase3132.…”

“…In addition, ESR results gave further evidence for the FM properties of the samples (S1–S4), all samples were performed under the same instrument parameters. ESR is an extremely powerful tool to test magnetic excitation spectra in solids, providing important information on a magnetic structure and main parameters of the effective spin Hamiltonian . As shown in Fig.…”

“…Resonances are due to Fe ions in different local environments, marked as Fe 3+ and Fe 3+ ‐ 2 V(O). The broad resonance, centered at 3350 G, is attributed by Lin et al18 to the cycloidal spin structure, i.e., “normal” Fe 3+ sites in the BFO lattice. After treatment, the Fe 3+ ‐ 2 V(O) line is significantly enhanced indicating that new oxygen vacancies were created.…”
