Zusammenfassung: | Layer-structured, single phase Bi5Fe0.5Co0.5Ti3O15 ceramics was synthesized following a multicalcination procedure. Magnetic moment increases more than three times by substituting half Fe sites by Co ions. The material exhibits an Aurivillius phase with a four-layer unit cell structure, and presents a remarkable coexistence of ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism above room temperature. The measured 2Pr and 2Mr are 13 μC/cm2 and 7.8 memu/g, respectively. The material’s magnetic behavior below 275 °C is relaxationlike and its magnetic Curie temperature is ∼345 °C. |
