Abstract: | In this paper, we report the influence of Ni doping on the structural, electrical, magnetic and magnetoelectric properties of BaTiO3 (BTO) ceramics. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicates a phase transition from tetragonal to hexagonal at x?=?2.5?mol%. Further, XRD data has been refined using Rietveld method to extract the phase formation, lattice parameters, and the phase fraction of BaTi1-xNixO3 ceramics. The ferroelectric polarization decreases with Ni doping concentration. The relative permittivity of BTNO compositions decreases while the corresponding dielectric loss increases with Ni doping concentration. Room temperature magnetic hysteresis (M-H) loop of all BTNO samples exhibit ferromagnetic nature with a saturated loop except for x?=?2.5?mol% Ni doping concentration. At x?=?2.5?mol% Ni doping concentration, a small amount of diamagnetism is observed at higher fields along with ferromagnetism. The origin of ferromagnetism is due to the F- center exchange interaction via oxygen vacancies. The highest remnant magnetization (Mr) is 11.76 memu/g for x?=?10?mol%. The Magnetodielectric coefficient (MD) and magnetoelectric coefficient (ME) gradually increases with increasing Ni doping concentration, and are 1.72% and 4.51 respectively for x?=?10?mol%. |
