Abstract
The crystal structure, structural phase formation, ionic oxidation state and magnetic properties were studied for understanding the weak ferromagnetism of Ti doped Bi0.9Nd0.1FeO3 compounds in the 10–400 K temperature range. The crystal structure analysis performed by X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering revealed a distorted rhombohedral structure in Ti-doped samples. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy identified a significant fraction of oxygen vacancies (∼5 %) and about 38 % of Fe2+ ions content which are the primary factors leading to a notable structural distortion. Magnetic measurements revealed the weak magnetic behavior in a wide temperature range. These observations have approved that titanium substitution is very effective tool to unlock the weak ferromagnetism; a mechanism responsible for the observed results is discussed in the context of lattice distortion, oxygen deficiency, and complex oxidation state of Fe ions. The release of a weak net magnetization in Ti-doped compounds is mainly caused by a disturbance of long-range incommensurate spin-cycloidal structure.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials provides an important forum for the disclosure and discussion of original contributions covering the whole spectrum of topics, from basic magnetism to the technology and applications of magnetic materials. The journal encourages greater interaction between the basic and applied sub-disciplines of magnetism with comprehensive review articles, in addition to full-length contributions. In addition, other categories of contributions are welcome, including Critical Focused issues, Current Perspectives and Outreach to the General Public.
Main Categories:
Full-length articles:
Technically original research documents that report results of value to the communities that comprise the journal audience. The link between chemical, structural and microstructural properties on the one hand and magnetic properties on the other hand are encouraged.
In addition to general topics covering all areas of magnetism and magnetic materials, the full-length articles also include three sub-sections, focusing on Nanomagnetism, Spintronics and Applications.
The sub-section on Nanomagnetism contains articles on magnetic nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, 2D materials and other nanoscale magnetic materials and their applications.
The sub-section on Spintronics contains articles on magnetoresistance, magnetoimpedance, magneto-optical phenomena, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), and other topics related to spin current control and magneto-transport phenomena. The sub-section on Applications display papers that focus on applications of magnetic materials. The applications need to show a connection to magnetism.
Review articles:
Review articles organize, clarify, and summarize existing major works in the areas covered by the Journal and provide comprehensive citations to the full spectrum of relevant literature.
