Abstract

The structure and magnetic properties of perovskite DyMn1−xFexO3 samples have been studied. Static orbital orderings are expected to exist in samples with x ≤ 0.2 due to strong Jahn-Teller distortion, which become less stable as x increases and probably disappears in samples with x > 0.5. The antiferromagnetic transition temperature increases as x increases. At the composition x > 0.5, spin reorientation starts to appear. Meanwhile, the spin reorientation temperature and the antiferromagnetic Néel temperature gradually separate and widen the temperature range of the magnetic metastable state between these two transitions. The magnetic competition is discussed based on exchange interaction and Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction.
