Abstract
Bi 5 Ti 3 Fe O 15 bulk ceramic and thin film samples are prepared using the sol-gel method. The dielectric, ferroelectric, and magnetic behaviors of these samples are measured in order to investigate the possible multiferroic effect. The superparamagnetic behavior with dominant antiferromagnetic (AFM) interaction background for the as-prepared Bi5Ti3FeO15 samples is revealed. The clearly identified magnetocapacitance effect at low temperature is argued to originate from the suppression of the AFM interaction by external magnetic field.
