Abstract

The ferroelectricity, magnetic properties, and charge-ordering modulations in the layered Lu2Fe2Fe1−xMnxO7 have been investigated for x ranging from 0 to 0.86. Experimental measurements reveal that substitution of Mn for Fe could evidently influence the low temperature magnetic transition. Moreover, ferroelectric analysis suggests that introduction of Mn ions in this layered system can efficiently suppress the conducting leakage and result in clear hysteresis loops in the polarization–electric field switching curves. The charge ordering states in Lu2Fe2Fe1−xMnxO7 characterized by two incommensurate modulations has been observed and discussed in association with the local spontaneous polarizations.
