| Title: | Nonstoichiometric BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃multiferroic ceramics with ultrahigh electrical resistivity | Authors: | Gu, YH Wang, Y Chen, F Chan, HLW Chen, W |
Issue Date: | 1-Nov-2010 | Source: | Journal of applied physics, 1 Nov. 2010, v. 108, no. 9, 094112, p. 1-5 | Abstract: | BiFeO₃, BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₁O₃, and BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃ceramics of relatively high perovskite phase content were prepared for a comparison study. While both BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₁O₃ and BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃ exhibit similarly improved weak ferromagnetism over BiFeO₃, there exists a major difference in the x-ray diffraction patterns of BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₁O₃and BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃ , and the leakage current of BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃is decreased by five orders of magnitude from that of BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₁O₃. With an ultrahigh electrical resistivity, over 1 x 10¹⁴Ωcm, BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃ ceramic displays an especially low dielectric loss, 0.015 at 100 Hz, a remanent polarization Pힲ of 0.23 μC/cm² and a remanent magnetization Mힲ of 0.13 emu/g at room temperature. It is proposed that the Fe-deficiency in BiFe₀.₉Ti₀.₀₅O₃ decreases the amount of Fe²⁺ and leads to the ultrahigh electrical resistivity. Nonstoichiometric compositions should receive more attention for developing high quality BiFeO₃ multiferroic materials. | Keywords: | Bismuth compounds Dielectric losses Dielectric polarisation Electrical resistivity Ferroelectric ceramics Ferromagnetic materials Leakage currents Multiferroics Remanence Stoichiometry X-ray diffraction |
