On the incorporation of iron into hexagonal barium titanate: II. Magnetic moment, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical transmission

Systematic measurements of the magnetic moment in dependence on temperature and
magnetic field of hexagonal 6H-BaTiO3 + 0.04 BaO + x/2 Fe 2 O 3 (0.005 x 0.05)
ceramics were performed to study the influence of Fe ions on the magnetic properties. While
the samples show Curie–Weiss paramagnetism for Fe concentrations 1.0 mol%,
antiferromagnetic interactions become manifest for 2.0 and 5.0 mol% iron. With increasing Fe
content the antiferromagnetic interaction, which is assumed to be caused by a superexchange
mechanism Fe 3+
Ti(1) − O 2−
O(2) − Fe3+
Ti(2) , becomes stronger. At external magnetic fields smaller
than 1 T a further, ferromagnetic interaction between Fe 3+ ions is detected below 200 K. The
interactions between Fe 3+ ions in the samples with 2.0 and 5.0 mol% iron are also manifest in
the EPR spectra by numerous lines with low intensity. Q-band EPR investigations of 5.0 mol%
Fe doped single crystals confirm the existence of only one type of Fe 3+ –V O associates in the
samples.
