Abstract: In this paper, polycrystalline BaFe4?xTi2+xO11 (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) samples have been synthesized by the conventional solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of all the samples show that the diffraction peaks correspond to that of an R-type hexagonal ferrite structure, and no trace of second phase is detected. Measurement of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveals that most of the Fe ions in BaFe4Ti2O11 are trivalent and the fitting of two peaks in Fe 2p spectrum corresponding to different Fe ion sites, while the amount of Fe2+ ions increases with the increase of Ti ions in BaFe4?xTi2+xO11. The spectroscopy of Ti ions confirms that the valence of Ti in BaFe4?xTi2+xO11 are tetravalent. Magnetic susceptibility of BaFe4?xTi2+xO11 (x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) reveals two magnetic transitions at T 1～250 K and T 2～83 K, which indicate a complex magnetic order driven by competing interactions on a frustrated lattice with a noncentrosymmetric structure. For all the samples, the magnetic susceptibility obeys Curie-Weiss law above T 1, and M-H curves exhibit a linear variation with magnetic field in this temperature range, which is consistent with the paramagnetic behavior. A decrease of the effective magnetic moment is due to the increase of Fe2+ ions with the increase of Ti content in BaFe4?xTi2+xO11. Below T 1, the magnetization curve as a function of temperature (M-T ) and the magnetization versus magnetic field (M-H) at different temperatures imply its characteristic of a typical canted antiferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic state. Meanwhile, the transition temperature T 2 drops gradually with the increase in Ti content, which might be related to the change of occupying of Fe ions in the kagome layers.
