Influence of La Doping on Magnetic and Optical Properties of Bismuth Ferrite Nanofibers

الملخص EN

The influence of La doping on the crystal structure, ferromagnetic, and optical properties of BFO nanofibers was investigated.

Bi1−xLaxFeO3 ultrafine nanofibers were synthesized by the electrospinning method.

The surface morphology and crystal structure of the as-spun and sintered fibers were not affected by the doping.

The impurity phases of the BFO crystals were weakened with the increment of La concentration.

The magnetization field curves showed that the magnetization weakened under low La doping proportion, but strengthened with the increase of the doped proportion.

The magnetization curves also showed continuous strong enhancement of ferromagnetic behavior.

The results of UV-vis and photoabsorption testing revealed little influence of La doping on the optical property.
