Abstract

Multiferroic compound (Bi0.9Pb0.1)(Fe0.9Ti0.1)O3 (BPFTO), having particle size of 15–25 nm, was synthesized by solution combustion method. BPFTO shows the coexistence of ferroelectricity and magnetism at room temperature. Significant enhancement in magnetic moment with moderate value of the electrical polarization is observed for nano-BPFTO. Remanent polarization and maximum polarizations were 1.056 and 1.866 μC/cm2, respectively (at 20 kV/cm), with remanent magnetization of 285 memu/g. Such materials, possessing good value of dielectric constant and showing ferroelectric and ferromagnetism in same phase, are of great importance from technical point of view.
