Abstract
RExBi1−xFeO3 (RE=La, Gd and Ho) samples were synthesized by a solid state reaction method and investigated for structure and magnetic properties. XRD shows that La and Ho dopings at A-site effectively reduce the secondary phase formation. A structural phase transition is observed to orthorhombic phase with all RE elements above certain concentration limit. La doping results in the observation of huge coercivity of 10 kOe and Ho doping results in high magnetic moment among all the RE elements. Gd and Ho doped samples show a pinching in the M-H loops with minimum HC.
