One – layered Ruddlesden‐Popper phase Sr 1+2 x La 1‐2 x Fe 1‐ x Nb x O 4 doped with niobium was synthesized using a sol‐gel method for various Nb concentrations ( x =0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5). Single‐phase samples could be observed with x =0 and 0.1, while x =0.3 and 0.5 contain additional phases. Microstructure results showed that the increase of niobium content corresponded to a decrease in the grain size of the samples. The magnetic measurements indicated that antiferromagnetic interactions of doped samples had decreased. The dielectric constant of the samples decreased as x increased due to the increase in conductivity. The origin of conduction in the samples might be caused by hopping conduction due to the mixed oxidation states of iron with charge +3 and +4.
