Optical and magnetic properties of Sm-doped BiFeO3 nanoparticles around the morphotropic phase boundary region

The crystal structure, photocatalytic activity, and ferromagnetic properties of Sm-substituted (Bi1−xSmxFeO3, x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) nanoparticles were systematically investigated within the entire Sm substitution region. The morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) consisting of a rhombohedral phase,...
