Abstract

We are reporting here, the studies of the structural, dielectric, ferroelectric and magnetic properties of magnetoelectric composites of La modified lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) and Ni modified cobalt ferrite (CNFO) with compositional formula xCo0.8Ni0.2Fe2O4+(1−x) Pb0.99625La0.0025Zr0.55Ti0.45O3 (x=0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15 and 1.00 by weight) prepared by the solid state reaction method. Coexistence of both the phases in composites was confirmed by X-Ray diffraction technique. The microstructure and average grain size were determined from Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) in backscattered mode. Both the phases could be observed clearly. The variations of dielectric properties with frequency and temperature were also studied. P–E and M–H hysteresis measurements were carried. Magnetoelectric coupling (ME) coefficient for samples with x=0.05 and 0.10 were measured as a function of DC magnetic field. Maximum value of ME coefficient (1.2mV/cmOe) and piezoelectric coefficient (96 pC/N) for x=0.05 were observed.
