Abstract

Magnetoelectric bulk composites of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4–BaTiO3 (CNFO–BT) were synthesized employing solid-state reaction method. The structural properties of CNFO–BT composites as discussed by X-ray diffraction method confirm lattice distortion and enlarged strain owing to BT substitution in CNFO. The dielectric and impedance measurements exhibit conventional Maxwell–Wagner polarization and confirm the existence of grain dominated non-Debye relaxation phenomena in CNFO–BT composites. The magnetic hysteresis curves reveal strong ferromagnetic behavior in all composites. The maximum energy storage density and an efficiency achieved for 0.8CNFO–0.2BT composite are 4.25 mJ/cm3 and 31.6%, respectively. The variation of polarization with magnetic field confirmed the highest magnetoelectric coefficient of 5 mV/cm/Oe for 0.8CNFO–0.2BT composite. The variation of dielectric permittivity and ferroelectric polarization with magnetic field reveals lattice distortion, interfacial charge polarization and restricted ferromagnetic domain wall rotation arising from substitution of BT in CNFO. These structure-dependent results suggest potential application of CNFO–BT composites in magnetoelectric sensors and energy storage devices.
