We studied the effect of structural change on the spin–phonon coupling in doped BiFeO 3 (BFO) films (Bi 0.8 La 0.1 Nd 0.1 FeO 3 ) grown on SrTiO 3 (001) substrate. The temperature‐dependent Raman studies show phonon anomalies in the vicinity of magnetic ordering temperature T N owing to the spin–phonon coupling. Doped films exhibit strong anomalies in the line widths of Raman bands around T N revealing the presence of strong spin–lattice coupling. The modification in structure as a result of A‐site doping in BFO films plays an important role in controlling the nature of spin–phonon coupling. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
