Structural, dielectric and magnetoelectric properties of (BSPT-LSMO) composites

摘要

The paper discuses mainly P-E and M-H hysteresis loops and magnetoelectric effect in Bag_(0.8-x)Sr_xPb_(0.2)TiO_3 (BSPTx)-La_(0.7)Sr_(0.3)MnO_3 (LSMO) composites. BSPTx powder is synthesized using solid state reaction method while, LSMO is synthesized using hydroxide co-precipitation route. The (BSPTx-LSMO) composites are prepared by mixing the respective powder in their weight proportion and sintering at 1100 ℃. The resulting composites are investigated for crystal structure, microstructure, dielectric properties and magnetoelectric coupling. The results are understood employing qualitative approach.
