Abstract:Bi 1-x Gd x FeO 3 (0≤ x ≤1.0) nanoparticles with an average diameter of 18 to 47 nm were synthesized by a wet chemical method. The annealing temperatures were controlled to obtain single-phase Bi 1-x Gd x FeO 3 nanoparticles. The crystal structures changed from rhombohedral to orthorhombic as Gd ions increased to around x =0.2. The behavior of magnetization curves of x =0.1 suggested canted antiferromagnetism and magnetization drastically increased compared with x =0 (BiFeO 3 ). This suggests that the canting … Show more
