ELECTRICAL AND MAGNETIC STUDIES ON SRBI5FETI4O18

The compound SrBi5FeTi4O18 is a five-layered material belonging to the family of Bismuth Layer Structured Ferroelectrics. Samples were prepa red by the ceramic route and de conductivity measurements were perform ed from room temperature to 550 degrees C and the activation energies were calculated. Impedance and modulus spectroscopy were used as tools to analyse the sample's behavior as a function of frequency. Relaxati ons in the sample were noted. Magnetization measurements were performe d from 80 K to 300 K. The results of the electrical and magnetic studi es are presented.
