In present study, the magnetic structure and spin reorientation of mixed doped orthoferrite Nd$_{0.5}$Dy$_{0.5}$FeO$_3$ have been investigated. Similar to both parent compounds (NdFeO$_3$ and DyFeO$_3$), the magnetic structure of Fe$^{3+}$ belongs to ${Gamma}_{4}$ irreducible representation (G$_{x}$, F$_{z}$) at room temperature. The experimental measurements confirmed the spin reorientation where magnetic structure of Fe$^{3+}$ changes from ${Gamma}_{4}$ to ${Gamma}_{2}$(F$_{x}$, G$_{z}$) between 75 and 20 ,K while maintaining G-type configuration. Such a gradual spin reorientation is unusual since the large single ion anisotropy of Dy$^{3+}$ ions causes an abrupt ${Gamma}_{4}$${rightarrow}$ ${Gamma}_{1}$(G$_{y}$) spin reorientation in DyFeO$_3$. Between 20 and 10 ,K, the Fe$^{3+}$ magnetic structure is represented by ${Gamma}_{2}$ (F$_{x}$, G$_{z}$). Unexpectedly, magnetic structure of Fe$^{3+}$ with ${Gamma}_{4}$ representation re-emerges below 10,K which also coincides with the development of rare-earth (Nd$^{3+}$/Dy$^{3+}$) magnetic ordering having C$_{y}$ configuration with magnetic moment of 1.8 ${mu}_{B}$. The absence of any signature of second order phase transition in the specific heat confirms the role of $R$(Nd$^{3+}$/Dy$^{3+}$)-Fe$^{3+}$ exchange interaction in the observed rare-earth ordering unlike DyFeO$_3$ where Dy$^{3+}$ ordering takes place independently to the magnetic ordering of Fe$^{3+}$ magnetic structure. Our (DFT+U+SO) calculations show that the C-type arrangement of rare-earth ions (Nd$^{3+}$/Dy$^{3+}$) with ${Gamma}_{2}$ configuration for Fe$^{3+}$ moments is the ground state whereas ${Gamma}_{4}$ phase is energetically very close. Nd-Fe and Nd-Dy exchange interactions, estimated from DFT, are observed to have significant roles in the rare earth ordering and Fe spin reorientation corroborating our experimental results.

Orthorhombic single crystals of TbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 are found to exhibit spin-reorientation, magnetization reversal and weak ferromagnetism. Strong anisotropy effects are evident in the temperature dependent magnetization measurements along the three crys
Recent progress in the field of multiferroics led to the discovery of many new materials in which ferroelectricity is induced by cycloidal spiral orders. The direction of the electric polarization is typically constrained by spin anisotropies and mag
Using Co-L_(2,3) and O-K x-ray absorption spectroscopy, we reveal that the charge ordering in La_(1.5)Sr_(0.5)CoO4 involves high spin (S=3/2) Co^2+ and low spin (S=0) Co^3+ ions. This provides evidence for the spin blockade phenomenon as a source for
