Abstract

The effect of Fe-doping on the magnetic properties of the ABO3-type perovskite cobaltites La0.7Ba0.3Co1–yFeyO3 (0 ≤ y ≤ 0.80) is reported. With no apparent structural change in any doped sample, the Curie temperature (TC) and the magnetization (M) are greatly suppressed for y ≤ 0.30 samples, while a distinct increase in TC for the y = 0.40 sample is observed. With the further increase of Fe concentration, TC increases monotonically. Griffiths-like phases in 0.40 ≤ y ≤ 0.60 samples are confirmed. The formation of the Griffiths-like phase is ascribed to B-site disordering induced isolation of ferromagnetic (FM) clusters above TC.
