Optical properties of Sm-doped BiFeO3 close to the morphotropic phase boundary — •Florian Burkert1, Michaela Janowski1, Xiaohang Zhang2, Ichiro Takeuchi2, and Christine Kuntscher11Experimentalphysik II, Universität Augsburg, 86159 Augsburg, Germany — 2Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742, USA

The perovskite BiFeO3 is a rare example for a magnetoelectric multiferroic above room temperature. It has been demonstrated on Bi1−xSmxFeO3 thin films that Sm-doping drives BiFeO3 towards a morphotropic phase boundary with enhanced piezoelectric properties, concomitant with a rhombohedral to pseudo-orthorhombic structural phase transition [1]. We studied the reflectance of a similar, Sm-doped BiFeO3 thin film in the far-infrared range at room temperature and ambient pressure by means of FTIR spectroscopy. With increasing Sm doping, we observe changes in the phonon spectrum, especially at Sm content around x=0.14, indicating the occurrence of a structural phase transition in agreement with earlier studies.
