Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We have studied the effect of Bi(Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3 additions on the phase formation, structural parameters, microstructure, and dielectric properties of solid solutions in the region of a morphotropic phase boundary in the BiFeO3–BaTiO3 system. Single-phase samples with the perovskite structure have been obtained and the addition of Bi(Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3 has been shown to raise the Curie temperature of the ceramics and improve their dielectric properties.
