Abstract
This study shows that remarkable electric and magnetic properties are encountered within the (1− x)Na 0.5Bi 0.5TiO 3 (NBT)–( x)BiFeO 3 (BF) solid solution. Dual ferroelectric and magnetic properties are observed in the BF-rich part of the solid solution implying intrinsic multiferroic character of the compounds. In addition, a relaxation phenomenon is evidenced within the overall compositional domain of the solid solution. This study emphasizes that in the NBT-rich part, the relaxor behaviour is very similar to that of NBT, while beyond x=0.5, it turns to a different mechanism of relaxation probably induced by the presence of oxygen vacancies resulting from the mixed valence of the iron cations.
