We find that it is a multiferroic material and the magnetocapacitive effect reaches a factor of up to 90 in an external field of 7 T. The results imply the further possibility of synthesizing the magnetocapacitive materials by modifying the frustrated spin structure in terms of a few B-site doping nonmagnetic ions.展开更多

Rietveld refinement shows that La（Fe11.4Al1.6）C0.02 crystallizes into the cubic NaZn13-type with two different Fe sites： FeI （8b） and FeII （96i）, and that A1 atoms preferentially occupy the FeII site. A ferromagnetic state can he induced at a medial temperature of 39 K-139 K by an external magnetic field of 0.7 T, and a large lattice is correspondingly found at 100 K and 0.7 T. In all other conditions, La（Fe11.4Al1.6）C0.02 has no net magnetization in the paramagnetic （T 〉 TN = 182 K） or antifer- romagnetic states, and thus keeps its small lattice. Analysis of the Fe Fe bond length indicates that the ferromagnetic state prefers longer Fe-Fe distances.展开更多

XRD patterns at room temperature indicate that compounds Lu2-xFexMo3O12 with x ≤ 1.3 exhibit an orthorhombic structure with space group Pnca; compounds with x = 1.5 and 1.7 have a monoclinic structure with space group P21/a. Studies on thermal expansion properties show that the linear thermal expansion coefficients of orthorhombic phase vary from negative to positive with increasing Fe content. Attempts to make zero thermal expansion materials indicate that zero thermal expansion can be observed in Lu1.3Fe0.7Mo3O12 in the temperature range of 200 400 ℃.展开更多
