Abstract

Single-phase nanostructured YFe1-xNixO3 (x = 0.1; 0.15; 0.2 and 0.25) perovskites were formed after annealing a mixture of precipitated hydroxides at 800 °C for 1 h. The results showed that at the amount of Ni substitution over 0.3, NiO and Y2O3 phases were formed in parallel with the YFeO3 phase. Moreover, as the amount of Ni substitution increased in the range of 0.1–0.5, the crystal sizes increased from 20 ± 3 to 22 ± 3 nm, while unit cell volumes decreased from 223.8 to 223.6 Å3. The magnetic parameters (Hc, Mr, Ms) of the nanostructured Ni-doped YFeO3 perovskites were quite higher than those of pure YFeO3, as well as of YFeO3 doped Ca or Co. As the amount of Ni substitution is in the range of 0.1–0.25, Hc decreased from 1332.6 to 887.9 Oe, while Ms increased from 0.67 to 1.18 emu/g and Mr increased from 1.8⋅10−1 to 3.2⋅10−1 emu/g.
