Summary: The role of co-doping with Ba and Sm in BiFeO3 has been studied, and it is found that co-doped samples have improved dielectric and electric polarization properties. Sm doping notably increases the real part of initial permeability and relative quality factor, as well as the coercivity of Bi0.85Ba0.15FeO3 ceramics. This study is of great importance for the fabrication of magnetoelectric devices.

Summary: Ferroelectric and magnetic properties are investigated for Bi2Fe4O9 nanoparticles with different shapes. The magnetic study reveals that coercivity, Neel temperature and remanent magnetization strongly depend on shape of the particle. The nanoparticle with sphere-like shape exhibits magnetization curve of antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering with ferromagnetic (FM) component. These shape dependent magnetic and ferroelectric properties are coming because of shape anisotropy.

Summary: Chromium ferrite-doped barium zirconate titanate multiferroic materials were prepared by solid-state reaction technique with different proportions of chromium ferrite in the barium zirconate titanate system. The phase formation, lattice parameter, and electronic state were characterized, showing a change in crystal structure with chromium ferrite doping. Magnetic and magnetoelectric properties were also measured, indicating improved magnetic field response in the doped materials, with the highest magnetoelectric coefficient observed at 2 mol% doping.

Summary: The magnetoelectric properties of Bi2Fe4O9 were enhanced by compounding with BaTiO3, showing improved magnetization and dielectric relaxation behavior. Both Bi2Fe4O9 and Bi2Fe4O9/BaTiO3 composite exhibited magnetodielectric effects indicating magnetoelectric coupling. The enhanced results in the composite were mainly attributed to the dielectric relaxation process and spin-orbit coupling.

Summary: Enhanced antiferromagnetic characteristics and room temperature magnetoelectric coupling are achieved by Fe-substitution for Mn in h-ScMnO3. The magnetoelectric coefficient alpha (ME) of about 0.78mV/cmOe is stable with the applied magnetic field, reflecting coupling of the short-range spin ordering with the ferroelectric ordering.

Summary: This study investigated the phase constitutions, ferroelectric, magnetic, and nanomechanical characteristics of BiFeO3 films with Dy substitution. The results showed that the BDFO films exhibited desired ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties, and the hardness of the films was controlled mainly by the impeded propagation of dislocation by grain boundary. The findings suggest that the radius and magnetic moment of the Dy3+ ions play a critical role in the structural evolution and enhanced properties of the BDFO films.

Summary: The structure and electrical properties of Ba0.85Ca0.15Zr0.1Ti0.9O3-xBiFeO3 ceramics were investigated. The samples showed perovskite structure with no detected second phase. The grain size of BiFeO3-doped ceramic samples was significantly reduced. The doped samples exhibited relaxation characteristics, with obvious dispersion phase transition and frequency dispersion. The study found that the sample with 8% doping had the best energy storage characteristics, with an energy storage density of 0.57 J/cm3 and an energy storage efficiency of 91.3%. This research provides a method to improve the energy storage density and efficiency of BCZT ceramics.
