Abstract

Combining the ferroelectric and magnetic components into the solid solution, it is expected to obtain the magneto-electric multiferroic material. Novel bulk ceramic compounds xPZT+(1 − x)PFW, where PZT = Pb(Zr0.575Ti0.425)O3 and PFW = Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3, for x = 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.50, 0.70, 0.80 were synthesized and their magnetic investigation was performed, including the measurement of zero-field cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) magnetization curves, magnetic hysteresis loops and AC susceptibility.In the low temperature region (below 20 K) splitting between the ZFC and FC curves together with the frequency dependent peaks in AC susceptibility point to the glassy freezing/blocking of magnetic moments and magnetic relaxor-like behaviour.
