In this study, the structural, morphological, and magnetic properties local structure of Bi1−xLaxFe0.95Co0.05O3 (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) nanoparticles were systematically investigated. (La, Co) co-doped BiFeO3 samples, a structural transition from rhombohedral to orthorhombic was observed via X-ray diffraction. This phase resulted in significantly improved (Ms 1.706 emu/g at 60 kOe). SEM an...

Two Planar Pt electrodes with an inter-electrode distance of about 100 nm were fabricated at the surface of BiFeO3 thin films, which allow the manipulation of ferroelectric domain switching at nanoscale. This electrode configuration was pursued to study conductive domain-wall influence on the photovoltaic current in BiFeO3 thin films. Modulations of short-circuit photovoltaic current and hyster...

The zinc (Zn) doped bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) have been successfully synthesized through the sol-gel autocombustion method as a microwave absorbent material composite process with silicone rubber. characterizations of nanoparticles was done using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), vibration sample magnetometer (VSM), and vector network analyzer (VNA). Through XRD test, n...

Materials that exhibit ferromagnetic and ferroelectric ordering in the same phase are named magnetoelectrics, which are part of a larger group of multiferroics. Multiferroics possess at least two ferroic orderings at the same time. Magnetoelectric materials are characterized by a strong coupling between the magnetic and electric subsystems, which means that the magnetic fi eld is able to induce...
