Abstract

The present work addresses the influence of Ca doping and (Eu, Ca) co-doping into BiFeO3 on its corresponding structural, magnetic, and ferroelectric properties. XRD results show that Bi site doped with Ca and Eu could result in a transition of crystal structure. Analysis of magnetic hysteresis data reveals a further enhancement of magnetism in the (Eu, Ca)co-doped samples which is explained by the structural distortions and the magnetically active characteristic of Eu3+ ions. High remnant polarization at room temperature was observed in the Bi1−0.05−y Eu0.05Ca y FeO3 samples by measuring the electric hysteresis loops due to Eu doping suppressing the formation of Fe2+ and oxygen vacancies.
