The structural and physical properties of pseudocubic thin-film BaTi_(1-x)Fe_(x)O_(3)(0.5≤x≤0.75) grown by pulsed-laser deposition are reported. This material is of interest because the corresponding bulk compounds have hexagonal structure for comparable x, and because the films are both ferroelectric and ferrimagnetic well above room temperature. A substantial increase of the ferroelectric transition temperature relative to that of bulk BaTiO_(3) is attributed to lattice expansion induced by Fe doping.
