Abstract

In this research work, we demonstrate a detailed and systematic investigation of the structural, microstructural, dielectric, electrical, and magnetic properties of the Mg-doped BaFe0.5Nb0.5O3 complex perovskite prepared through the conventional ceramic method. While electron microscopic imaging depicts the heterogeneous distribution of non-uniform shape grains, X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the monoclinic crystal structure of the sample. The elemental analysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirms the presence of expected elements in the sample. Besides valency identification of the involved elements, the existence of oxygen vacancies is evident from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. Dielectric and electrical properties are investigated in terms of dielectric constant, dielectric loss, complex impedance, and conductivity studies. Magnetic analysis reveals that the sample exhibits weak ferromagnetism at room temperature. The obtained results from various characterizations signify the suitability of this sample for modern electronic device-based applications.
