Large changes in saturation and remnant magnetization, magnetic susceptibility at low and high fields, along with some anomalous changes in the magnetic transition temperature are observed in nanocrystalline Bi1-xLaxFeO3 system for 0.1 &amp;lt;= x &amp;lt;= 0.2. This compositional region corresponds to the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region separating the rhombohedral and orthorhombic phases, and the effect is similar to that observed in many ferroelectric systems. The present observation of enhanced ferromagnetic parameters in the MPB region of the nanocrystalline multiferroic La substituted BiFeO3 system, combined with the known ferroelectric characteristics, is suitable for future device applications.

Structural studies by Rietveld refinement of XRD patterns revealed rhombohedral R3c structure for x &lt;= 0.11 and orthorhombic Pbnm structure for x &gt;= 0.2. For compositions in the range 0.11 &lt; x &lt; 0.2, mixed phase behaviour is observed showing a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region. Magnetisation at room temperature increases with increasing Ca and Mn content, showing weak ferromagnetism. Coercivity and remanence initially increase and then decrease with increasing x, showing a maximum for x = 0.175 in the MPB region. Dielectric constant also shows a maximum value in the mixed phase region. Magnetodielectric (MD) studies revealed positive MD for the R3c phase and a negative MD for the Pbnm phase, showing a maximum MD (similar to 1%) for x approximate to 0.1 and crossover at x approximate to 0.175. The studies show strong interplay between the structure and properties, suggesting tuneable bismuth ferrite based compositions for magnetoelectric applications.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.968</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
