The orthorhombic crystal structure of YFeO3 (YFO) is well known for photocatalysis and magneto‐optical application mainly due to its low energy bandgap when compared to that of other perovskite‐based oxide materials. Continuous efforts are being made on this material to further improve the magnetization value via changing the synthesis process, changing the chelating agents, doping the rare earth elements, and a few more. In this connection, we attempted to improve the magnetization value of YFO nanomaterial by making solid solutions with ZnSnO3 (ZS) nanomaterial. Here we prepared the solid‐solution of (1‐x) YFO + x ZS (where × = 0, 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06) were synthesized via a conventional solid‐state reaction route. For this, the pre‐reacted YFO nanomaterial and ZS nanomaterial powders were used to investigate the effect of ZS on the magnetic properties of YFO. X‐ray diffraction studies revealed that a single phase was formed maximum up to × = 0.06 mol of ZS in YFO. Interestingly the magnetization value for the x= 0.04 mol ZS in YFO (4.212 emu/g) is superior to that of pure YFO (3.196 emu/g) as well as other compositions of ZS in YFO. The optical bandgap was found to be decreased (from 2.12 to 2.07 eV) with an increase of ZS mol (0 to 0.06) in YFO. From this investigation, we conclude that ZS (x=0.04) in YFO will be potential candidates for the different magnetic applications.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
