Popis: | In the present work, pure and transition metal titanium (Ti)-doped LaFe1−xTixO3(x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6) nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis technique for various molar ratios of 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6. The prepared samples were grinned and annealed in furnace at 600 ∘C/4 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirms the phase orthorhombic formation of LaFeO3 and Ti-doped LaFeO3. The stoichiometric analysis was performed through energy-dispersive X-ray studies (EDX). The micro-structural features of surface morphology were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Further, surface nanocrystalline of the titanium (Ti)-doped LaFe1−xTixO3 was also investigated through high-resolution transmission electron microscopic (TEM) analysis. The enhancement of room temperature magnetization value has been observed from the M–H curve which is measured using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM).The weak ferromagnetic behavior was observed from hysteresis loop. From hysteresis loop, saturation takes place when the applied magnetic field intensity is 15 kOe. |
