Abstract

Abstract Orthorhombic PrCrO 3 cubic particles were synthesized by a simple and facile one-step hydrothermal method of processing temperature 280 °C for 7 days. The products prepared in this paper have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The magnetic properties of the final sample are also studied. The XRD pattern shows the pure orthorhombic phase for PrCrO 3 particles, the XPS and FTIR results further demonstrate the purity and composition of the product. FESEM images show cubic morphology for the PrCrO 3 particles. The possible growth mechanism for PrCrO 3 cubic particles is proposed. Through the investigation of magnetic properties, it can be seen that the orthorhombic PrCrO 3 cubic particles exhibit behaviors of magnetic transition and negative magnetization. The Neel temperature is about 232 K and the magnetic hysteresis loop under 4 K shows that the coercivity ( H C ) and remanence ( M r ) is about 1728 Oe and 4.88 emu/g, respectively.
