New Fe3+/ Cr3+ Perovskites with Anomalous Transport Properties: The Solid Solution LaxBi1–xFe0.5Cr0.5O3 (0.4 ≤ x ≤ 1)

In this work, the sol–gel synthesis, structural characterization, and transport properties of a new solid solution of the general formula LaxBi1–xFe0.5Cr0.5O3 (0.4 ≤ x ≤ 1) are presented. The solubility limit x has been determined and variation of the lattice parameters measured through profile fitt...

description In this work, the sol–gel synthesis, structural characterization, and transport properties of a new solid solution of the general formula LaxBi1–xFe0.5Cr0.5O3 (0.4 ≤ x ≤ 1) are presented. The solubility limit x has been determined and variation of the lattice parameters measured through profile fitting. The cell parameters, space group, and atomic positions, as obtained by the Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data, are reported. This analysis and electron diffraction studies as well do not reveal any evidence of Fe/Cr ordering. Regarding the transport properties, magnetic and electric characterizations are described. The electrical response with the temperature and frequency has been studied, and a “positive temperature coefficient” for the resistivity has been found for temperatures between 270 and 400 °C. The magnetic behavior is striking because, for all materials studied, zero-field-cooling curves appear above field-cooling ones, an anomalous feature that is interpreted as being due to complex ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic interactions in the B perovskite sublattice.
