研究目的
Investigating the effect of Sr doping on the structural, optical, dielectric, and impedance properties of Bi1-xSrxFeO3 nanocomposites prepared by citrate combustion reaction route.
研究成果
The study successfully synthesized Sr doped bismuth ferrite (BSFO) samples using a combustion method, observing changes in optical and dielectric properties with Sr substitution. The complex impedance and modulus spectroscopy analyses indicated non-Debye type dielectric relaxation. The dielectric constant decreased with Sr addition, attributed to changes in grain size and oxygen vacancies. The study also noted a perceptible change in dielectric constant near the Neel temperature, indicating magnetoelectric coupling. The room temperature ferromagnetism and tunable optical band gap in BSFO nanoparticles suggest potential applications in photocatalytic activity and optoelectronic devices.
研究不足
The study acknowledges the presence of secondary phases and defects introduced during the combustion process, which may affect the material's properties. The high conductivity and space-charge effect at high temperatures may obscure some observations, such as the anomaly around the magnetic transition temperature of BFO.
