We have carried out the powder x-ray diffraction and dielectric studies on multiferroic particulate composite xNi0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4/(1-x)PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 with x=0.15, 0.30, 0.45, 0.60, 0.75 and 0.90 to explore the structural and ferroelectric…

The two-dimensional (2D) quantum spin system (CuCl)LaNb2O7 has a spin-singlet ground state with a gap of 2.3 meV, while the isostructural material (CuBr)LaNb2O7 displays collinear antiferromagnetic order at TN = 32 K. Here we report on the…

Perovskite solid solutions PbHfO3-PbSnO3 offer valuable opportunities for studying the formation mechsnisms of incommensurate phases, owing to the presence of an intermediate (between cubic and incommensurate) phase, which is stabilized in…

The Sn substituted Ni-Zn ferrites were synthesized by the standard double sintering technique using nano powders of nickel oxide (NiO), zinc oxide (ZnO), iron oxide (Fe2O3) and tin oxide (SnO2). The structural and electrical properties have…

The barium sodium niobate (BNN) with tungsten-bronze structure is one of well-known optical crystals for electro-optic and nonlinear optic applications. This paper reviews the ferroelectric instability of BNN crystals. BNN is a uniaxial…

Under normal conditions, bulk crystals of BiScO$_3$ , BiCrO$_3$, BiMnO$_3$, BiFeO$_3$, and BiCoO$_3$ present three very different variations of the perovskite structure: an antipolar phase, a rhombohedral phase with a large polarization…

Solid solutions of (1-x)LaFeO3-(x)PbTiO3 (0<x<1) have been prepared by conventional solid-state reaction. These complex perovskites have been studied by means of X-ray (XRPD) and neutron powder (NPD) diffraction, complemented with…

The issues related to the structure refinement of Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3 (PZT) solid solutions are discussed. Particular attention is paid on the modelling of the co-existing phases in the vicinity of the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB), where…

The structural flexibility and multifunctional nature of double perovskite oxides make them attractive for applications requiring coupled optical, mechanical, and thermal performance. Using first-principles computations, this study examines…

Here, the first-principles predictions on the structural stability, magnetic behavior and electronic structure of B-site ordered double perovskite Nd$_{2}$FeCrO$_{6}$ have been reported. Initially, the ground state of the parent single…

Experimental and theoretical studies of unusual polar, dielectric and magnetic properties of room temperature multiferroics, such as perovskites Pb(Fe$_{1/2}$Nb$_{1/2}$)O$_3$ (PFN) and Pb(Fe$_{1/2}$Ta$_{1/2}$)O$_3$ (PFT), are very…

The polar behavior of double perovskite (Bi,Pb)ZnNbO$_6$ and (Bi,Sr)ZnNbO$_6$ was investigated using first principles density functional calculations within the local density approximation. These materials have both $A$-site size disorder…

We report the electronic and local structural investigation of double pervoskites Sr$_{2-x}$La$_x$CoNbO$_6$ ($x=$ 0--1) using x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended x-ray absorption fine structures (EXAFS) at the Nb, Co,…

Theoretical {\em ab initio} and experimental methods were used to investigate the $x$Bi(Zn,Ti)O$_3$-(1-$x$)PbTiO$_3$ (BZT-PT) solid solution. We find that hybridization between Zn 4$p$ and O 2$p$ orbitals allows the formation of short,…

Ba2ScSbO6 (BSS) has been synthesized in polycrystalline form by solid state reaction. Structural characterization of the compound was done through X-ray diffraction (XRD) followed by Riedvelt analysis of the XRD pattern. The crystal…

X-ray absorption fine structure measurements of the Sr and La K edges of the solid solution La(1-x)Sr(x)MnO(3) reveal a consistent deviation from a random distribution of Sr at the La/Sr sites for x~0.3. Local structural disorder on the…

First principles computations of Raman intensities were performed for perovskite-family compound CaAl$_{1/2}$Nb$_{1/2}$O$_3$ (CAN). This compound features 1:1 (NaCl-type) ordering of Al and Nb superimposed onto the $b^-b^-c+$ octahedral…
