Abstract

The structural phase transition and local structural distortion of Er-doped BiFeO3 nanoparticles have been discussed in order to understand the variation of magnetic properties in this system. The X-ray diffraction patterns and X-ray absorption fine structure of these samples demonstrate that there is structural phase transition and no obvious local structural distortion with the increasing of doping concentration. Unfortunately, no ferromagnetic properties have been observed even at a lower temperature. And the X-ray absorption spectra of Fe 2p core level of these samples are totally same, especially the energy positions do not shift which means the consistent valence states of Fe ions.
