Abstract

Abstract : A series of perovskite BaTb1– x Bi x O3 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.25) solid solutions were synthesized by a typical solid‐state method. Their structures were analyzed by a combination of X‐ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, and selected‐area electron diffraction. All of the materials crystalize in the P1 space group [ a = 6.0582(1) Å, b = 6.0473(1) Å, c = 6.0693(1) Å, α = 60.00(1)°, β = 59.84(1)°, γ = 60.06(1)° for x = 0.0 at room temperature]. Magnetic measurements revealed that the magnetic‐ordering temperature decreases with increasing Bi content in BaTb1– x Bi x O3 ; therefore, the presence of Bi decreases the magnetic interactions of Tb. Furthermore, the magnetic structure for BaTb1– x Bi x O3 has been fully described in space group P 1. Abstract : The members of the series BaTb1– x Bi x O3 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.25) crystallize in the P 1 space group at room temperature, as determined by a combination of powder X‐ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, and electron diffraction for BaTbO3, which has an antiferromagnetic structure below the Neel temperature.
