Abstract
The structural and magnetic properties of the Ba2-xSmxFeMoO6 (x = 0.0, 0.15, 0.2) samples synthesized by the sol–gel method have been investigated. Albeit the doped samples were achieved with impurities, Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data revealed that these samples crystallized in cubic structure with Fm-3 m space group. The lattice parameters, unit cell volume, and bond lengths of the samples with doping increased compared to the pristine sample. A mixed valence states was observed for all samples by XPS characterization. A reduction in magnetization (MS) is observed for doped samples. The transition temperature (TC) decreased by doping Sm3+ ions. The observation of two peaks in the real component of magnetic susceptibility can be ascribed to the existence of Griffiths phases.

期刊介绍:
Results in Physics is an open access journal offering authors the opportunity to publish in all fundamental and interdisciplinary areas of physics, materials science, and applied physics. Papers of a theoretical, computational, and experimental nature are all welcome. Results in Physics accepts papers that are scientifically sound, technically correct and provide valuable new knowledge to the physics community. Topics such as three-dimensional flow and magnetohydrodynamics are not within the scope of Results in Physics.
Results in Physics welcomes three types of papers:
1. Full research papers
2. Microarticles: very short papers, no longer than two pages. They may consist of a single, but well-described piece of information, such as:
- Data and/or a plot plus a description
- Description of a new method or instrumentation
- Negative results
- Concept or design study
3. Letters to the Editor: Letters discussing a recent article published in Results in Physics are welcome. These are objective, constructive, or educational critiques of papers published in Results in Physics. Accepted letters will be sent to the author of the original paper for a response. Each letter and response is published together. Letters should be received within 8 weeks of the article''s publication. They should not exceed 750 words of text and 10 references.
