First principles investigation on the electronic, magnetic and optical properties of Bi0.8M0.2Fe0.9Co0.1O3 (M = La, Gd, Er, Lu)

Enhancement of phase stability and optoelectronic performance of BiFeO3thin filmsviacation co-substitution

“…20%) could significantly alter the electronic, magnetic an optical properties of the BFCO system. 70 To gain further insight into the band gap reduction observed in BFCO and La-BFCO solid solutions, we analysed the partial density of electronic states (pDOS) around the Fermi energy level (Fig. 6).…”
