Abstract:The perovskite Ca0.5Bi0.5FeO3 containing unusually high valent Fe 3.5+ undergoes sequentially charge disproportionation (CD) of the Fe centres and intersite charge transfer (CT) between Bi and Fe. From structural, magnetic, and transport property characterization, we found that substitution of Fe with Co occurs isoelectronically to form Ca 0.5 Bi 0.5 3+ (Fe 1−x Co x) 3.5+ O 3 and destabilizes the CD state. This results in materials exhibiting only intermetallic charge transfer behaviour in the region 0.01 < x … Show more
