X-ray diffraction, a.c. impedance and conductivity (a.c. and d.c.) have bee
n used to characterize DyBi5Fe2Ti3O18. Samples were prepared by solid state
double sintering method. A few samples were also subjected to hot isostati
c pressing (HIP) at 800 degreesC for 2 h at 100 MPa pressure. The data on X
RD, impedance and conductivity of two sets of samples are compared to under
stand study of effect of HIPing on the properties of DyBi5Fe2Ti3O18.
