Abstract

We present a study on the structural and magnetic properties of Sr(Fe0.2Mn0.2Co0.2Ti0.2V0.2)O3 (S5BO) high-entropy oxide perovskite thin films. We use synchrotron-based x-ray absorption spectroscopy employing x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and reveal an enhanced presence of high-spin Co2+, which appears to feature a magnetic response opposing that of the two other magnetic transition metal elements, Fe and Mn. This is marked by both opposite XMCD signals and an inverted XMCD hysteresis loop for Co, while Fe and Mn show regularly shaped hysteresis curves, as the picture of a ferrimagnetic ground state emerges for S5BO.
