Abstract
A single phase multiferroic magnetoelectric compound, (Sm0.5Li0.5)(Fe0.5V0.5)O3, is found at room temperature. This sample is fabricated using solid state reaction route. Analysis of the structural properties of the sample by X-ray diffraction method confirmed the fabrication of the desired compound with orthorhombic unit cell structure. Morphological property of the sample is recorded by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Impedance spectroscopy is employed to determine the various electrical parameters such as dielectric constant, loss tangent, impedance, electric modulus, etc. at different temperature (RT–400 °C) within a frequency range of (1 kHz–1 MHz). Furthermore, the bulk resistance as function of temperature and J–E characteristic showed the semiconducting behavior of sample with negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) type nature of the compound. The M–H loop of this sample indicates the ferromagnetic nature with very low coercive field. A dedicated magnetoelectric set up is used to measure the ME coefficient as a function of magnetic field and found a significant ME coefficient of 2.99 mV Cm−1 Oe−1 at room temperature.
