Abstract
Bismuth Ferrite (BiFeO3), Neodymium (Nd) and Manganese (Mn) (Bi1-xNdxFe1-yMnyO3) with (x, y = 0.03, 0.03; 0.03, 0.05; 0.05, 0.03; 0.05, 0.05) were prepared by Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) method at annealing temperatures of 550 °C. The effects of addition of Nd and Mn co-dopants in the BiFeO3 on the crystal structure and optical properties are presented. The results of X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) characterization showed that the addition of Nd and Mn co-dopants leads the diffraction angles to shift to smaller angles and to decrease the crystal size. Doped-BiFeO3 samples were characterized by UV-vis in the wavelength range of 200 nm-800 nm. The transmittance value of Bi1-xNdxFe1-yMnyO3 samples decreased in the wavelength range of 400-800 nm (UV light). The addition of Nd and Mn co-dopants to BiFeO3 caused light dispersion and refractive index to decrease.
