Zusammenfassung: | Effect of Ba substitution on the multiferroic properties of non-epitaxially grown polycrystalline Bi1−xBaxFeO3 (BBFO) films on refined Pt(111) electrode buffered glass substrates is studied. The structural analysis shows that a pure perovskite phase is present for BBFO films (x = 0.05-0.15), and (110) preferred orientation is developed for films with high x = 0.15. The grain size and surface roughness are reduced with increasing x. All studied BBFO films show desired ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties. The good ferroelectric properties with the remanent polarization (2Pr) of 36-70 μC/cm2 and electrical coercive field (Ec) of 318-570 kV/cm are attained. On the other hand, the substitution of Ba2+ for Bi3+ in the A site of the BFO crystal structure can effectively enhance the ferromagnetic properties with magnetization (Ms) of 9.4-13.9 emu/cm3 and coercivity (Hc) of 1216-1380 Oe. The ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties and leakage behavior as functions of Ba content x are discussed. |
