Abstract
New information on the magnetic ordering of the iron ions in bismuth ferrite BiFeO3 was obtained by a study with a high-resolution time-of-flight neutron diffractometer. The observed splitting of magnetic diffraction maxima could be interpreted in terms of a magnetic cycloidal spiral with a long period of 620+or-20 AA, which is unusual for perovskites.
