Abstract: The dilute magnetic semiconductor of Sn1-x-yMnxFeyO2(0≤x≤0.10, 0≤y≤0.10) were synthesized with the hydrothermal method using SnCl4, Mn(CH3COO)2·4H2O and FeCl3·6H2O as the raw materials. The structure, morphologies and magnetic properties of the sample were characterized via X-ray powder diffractometer(XRD), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), Raman spectrum and superconducting and quantum interference device(SQUIT), and Mssbeaur spectrum. No secondary phase was found in the XRD spectrum. The morphology of the samples is affected by the kind or the mount of transition metal. The local vibrating model of Mn Positioned SnO2 sites was found in Raman spectrum. The measured magnetic results indicate that when x=0.10, y=0, the sample exhibits strong magnetization in low-temperature(5 K), but the magnetization decrease rapidly at room temperature; In contrast, when x=0, y=0.1, the sample's magnetization and coercivity are both small, but being temperature independent. Mössbeaur spectra indicates that part of the Fe is ferromagnetic coupled, and the simulating results indicate that the ferromagnetic character is intrinsic. The magnetization of the Mn and Fe codoping system decrease with the decrease of x and increase of y, However, the coercivity is comparatively enhanced in the codoping system.
