摘要:

对BiFeO 3多铁性陶瓷进行了Ca掺杂。与Bi相比,Ca的较小离子尺寸意味着掺杂充当流体静压的代理,以1%Ca=0.3GPa的速率。磁性Neel温度(TNeel)随Ca浓度的增加而增加,增加速率为0.66K/1%Ca(摩尔)。基于化学压力对TNeel的影响,我们认为,对纯BiFeO_3施加静水压可以使其磁转变温度以约2.2K/GPa的速率升高。结果还表明,压力(化学或流体静力学)可以用来使铁电临界温度,Tc,和磁性TNeel更接近在一起,从而增强磁电耦合,只要电导率可以保持足够低。

英文摘要:

Multiferroic BiFeO3 ceramics have been doped with Ca. The smaller ionic size of Ca compared with Bi means that doping acts as a proxy for hydrostatic pressure, at a rate of 1%Ca=0.3GPa. It is also found that the magnetic Neel temperature (TNeel) increases as Ca concentration increases, at a rate of 0.66K per 1%Ca (molar). Based on the effect of chemical pressure on TNeel, we argue that applying hydrostatic pressure to pure BiFeO3 can be expected to increase its magnetic transition temperature at a rate around ~2.2K/GPa. The results also suggest that pressure (chemical or hydrostatic) could be used to bring the ferroelectric critical temperature, Tc, and the magnetic TNeel closer together, thereby enhancing magnetoelectric coupling, provided that electrical conductivity can be kept sufficiently low.
