Abstract

ABSTRACTWe present the results of studies on the dielectric properties of polycrystalline Bi1-xCaxFeO3 (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.20) (BCFO) multiferroics. Rietveld refined XRD patterns confirm the single phasic nature of 5% & 10% Ca – doped samples crystallizing in superimposed R3c (Rhombohedral) + Pm 3m (Cubic) space group symmetry while 20% Ca – doped sample crystallize in Pm 3m symmetry. Frequency and temperature dependent dielectric constant (ϵ) studies show the contribution of grain and grain boundaries in the system. Complex impedance graph exhibits a single semicircular arc for all the samples, indicating the contribution of grain interior (bulk) property of the material.
