Room-Temperature Ferromagnetism in Co-Doped SrTiO3 Nanofibres

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this article, Co-doped SrTiO3 nanofibres have been prepared by electrospinning from a sol-gel precursor and the following calcination at 923K. XRD results confirmed that no second phase was formed, and Co ions successfully occupied the Ti sites. By annealing in hydrogen, oxygen vacancies and (Co-H-Co) were formed, which both contributed to the magnetic ordering in SrTi1-xCoxO3 nanofibres are at 300K.
