Abstract

(Fe1−xNdx)3N was successfully prepared by a simple complex method. The as-synthetized (Fe1−xNdx)3N exhibits regular rod-like morphology and excellent magnetic properties. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy with Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as vibrating sample magnetometer are employed to analyze the structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the samples. What’s more, when the Nd doping concentration is 3%, the coercivity reaches a higher value of 664.61 Oe. It is much higher than the coercivity of 408.84 Oe for the pure Fe3N. The material shows a trend of transition to hard magnet. It opens the way for other soft magnet translating into hard magnet by doping rare earth ions.
