Impurity phase introduced by both Bi fluctuation and Mn substitution can be suppressed by Ca doping and a space group transition from R3c to C222 can also be triggered by Bi-site doping. With co-substitution of Mn into iron site, the Ca0.15Bi0.85Mn0.05Fe0.95O3 nanofibres presented a larger saturation magnetization than the singly Ca doping samples, possibly due to the increased double exchange interation of Fe3+-O-Fe2+, strengthened by Ca and Mn. Photocatalytic degradation test witnessed a similar drop-and-rise performance with the magnetism.展开更多
