By hydrothermal methods single-crystalline BiFeO3 (BFO) nanorods with diameters of 15-40nm and lengths of 100-400nm were synthesized. The rhombohedra phased nanorods grow along the [110] direction. The nanorods show weak ferromagnetism at room temperature and enhanced spin-glass type magnetism at low temperature. Around 100K, a strong spin-two-phonon coupling has been detected, confirming the spin-glass freezing behaviors. With emphasis on the size and morphology, the enhanced magnetism and the spin-glass freezing of the BFO nanorods have been discussed.
