Abstract BiScO 3-PbTiO 3 (BS-PT) system has been extensively investigated over two
decades since the discovery in 2001 for its high piezoelectric coefficient and high Curie …

The B-site substituted perovskite oxides A 2 B′ B ″O 6 have in the recent decades gained
an increasing amount of interest due to their various interesting properties and possible …

Multiferroic materials, which show simultaneous ferroelectric and magnetic ordering, exhibit
unusual physical properties—and in turn promise new device applications—as a result of …

Multiferroics, defined for those multifunctional materials in which two or more kinds of
fundamental ferroicities coexist, have become one of the hottest topics of condensed matter …

Perovskite nickelates (RNiO3, where R is rare earth or a heavy metal such as Tl or Bi)
display sharp metal–insulator transitions, unusual magnetic order, charge order and …

Abstract Layered oxides, A 2 B'B ″O 6, with small ions at A-site mostly occupied by unusual-
metals like transitional metals are of great importance due to their strong and unusual …

The crystal and magnetic structures of polycrystalline BiCoO3 have been determined by the
Rietveld method from neutron diffraction data measured at temperatures from 5 to 520 K …

A polar oxide ZnSnO3 was synthesized by a solid-state reaction under a pressure of 7 GPa
and a temperature of 1000° C. The crystal structure was determined by Rietveld analysis of …

The paper first introduces the basic physics behind perovskite multiferroics. Then the recent
progress on simple, complex perovskites, and manganites are briefly reviewed. The review …

Layer-structured, single phase Bi 5 Fe 0.5 Co 0.5 Ti 3 O 15 ceramics was synthesized
following a multicalcination procedure. Magnetic moment increases more than three times …
