Abstract

We present here the structural, electrical, magnetic and magneto-electric properties of La 0.8Bi 0.2Fe 0.7Mn 0.3O 3 multiferroic sample synthesized by conventional solid state reaction route. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data show single phase character of the sample. Temperature (150–475 K) variation of dielectric constant exhibits step like escalation which consists of two transitions corresponding to the respective peaks in temperature vs. loss tangent curve. Slight shift in peak positions to higher temperatures with the increase of frequency indicates the presence of relaxor behavior. Magnetic field dependent magnetization (M–H) curve at 300 K demonstrates weak ferromagnetic conduct. Coupling between the electric and magnetic orders has been explored by means of magneto-capacitance measurement. Presence of magneto-electric (ME) coupling ascertains the candidature of this material for device application.
