Abstract
The room temperature multiferroic behavior of (1-x)BaTiO3- xMgFe2O4 (x = 0.05, 0.15, 0.25, 0.35 and 0.45) 0–3 particulate and 2–2 laminated composites has been investigated. Powder X-Ray diffraction data confirms the formation of both perovskite tetragonal BTO and spinel cubic MFO phases coexist with the absence of impurity phases in the detectable limit. The SEM image of the composite samples provides an evidence for presence of two different phases (ferroelectric BTO and ferrite MFO) with different grain size and morphology. An enhancement of magnetization with the increase of ferrite molar fraction in the particulate composites reveals the unbalanced anti parallel spins between Fe3+ and Mg2+ ions attributes the magnetic property of the composites. Leakage, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the particulate composites clearly shows leaky behavior of composites with the increase of MgFe2O4 concentration. Eventually, 0.65BaTiO3–0.35MgFe2O4 laminated composite with sandwich structure showed better ME coupling than 2–2 laminated bilayer and 0–3 particulate ceramic composites.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials provides an important forum for the disclosure and discussion of original contributions covering the whole spectrum of topics, from basic magnetism to the technology and applications of magnetic materials. The journal encourages greater interaction between the basic and applied sub-disciplines of magnetism with comprehensive review articles, in addition to full-length contributions. In addition, other categories of contributions are welcome, including Critical Focused issues, Current Perspectives and Outreach to the General Public.
Main Categories:
Full-length articles:
Technically original research documents that report results of value to the communities that comprise the journal audience. The link between chemical, structural and microstructural properties on the one hand and magnetic properties on the other hand are encouraged.
In addition to general topics covering all areas of magnetism and magnetic materials, the full-length articles also include three sub-sections, focusing on Nanomagnetism, Spintronics and Applications.
The sub-section on Nanomagnetism contains articles on magnetic nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, 2D materials and other nanoscale magnetic materials and their applications.
The sub-section on Spintronics contains articles on magnetoresistance, magnetoimpedance, magneto-optical phenomena, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), and other topics related to spin current control and magneto-transport phenomena. The sub-section on Applications display papers that focus on applications of magnetic materials. The applications need to show a connection to magnetism.
Review articles:
Review articles organize, clarify, and summarize existing major works in the areas covered by the Journal and provide comprehensive citations to the full spectrum of relevant literature.
