Abstract

Bi3.4La0.6Ti3O12 and CoFe2O4 were synthesized by chemical solution route, and Bi3.4La0.6Ti3O12/CoFe2O4 multilayers were deposited by spin coating on Pt substrate. X-ray diffraction of multilayer structures reveals composite-like polycrystalline film. Leakage current is less than 10−5 A at electric field < 90 KV/cm and follows the Ohmic behavior. Dielectric response shows relaxation and the loss (tan δ) is below 3% at 106 Hz. Room temperature ferrroelectric polarization (Pr) = 20.2 μC/cm2 and ferromagnetic memory (Mr) = 46.5 emu/cm3 has been obtained. Co-existence of FE and FM response can be attributed to stress and different permeability and permittivity involved in multilayer structures.
