Specific features of the formation of Aurivillius phases (Bi1−xSrx)m+1Fem−3Ti3O3(m+1)−δ (m = 4−7; x = 0.0−0.7) with a perovskitelike block having a nanometric thickness (h) of 2 – 3 nm are described. It has been established that the degree of isomorphous substitution in the bismuth sublattice and thermal stability of phases tend to reduce with the increasing h. It has been demonstrated that the magnetic ions inside the perovskite-like block can have antiferromagnetic interaction exchange that influences magnetic properties of the Aurivillius phases.
