ABSTRACT
In search of new multiferroic materials we introduced iron into the lattice of improper ferroelectric gadolinium molybdate. Magnetic measurements show weak ferromagnetic-like hysteresis in addition to the primary paramagnetic behavior. The likely reason of this contribution is clustering of magnetic ions into separate iron-rich particles.
