Abstract

We study the influence of electrical poling, carried out at room temperature, on the structure and magnetism of Pb(Fe0.5Nb0.5)O-3 by analyzing the differences observed in structural and magnetic properties before and after the electrical poling. The changes observed in magnetization of Pb(Fe0.5Nb0.5)O-3 before and after electrical poling exhibit considerably strong converse magnetoelectric effect at room temperature. In addition, the strengthening of Fe/Nb-O bond due to electrical poling is discussed on the basis of Raman spectral studies and analysis of neutron diffraction patterns. The potential tunability of magnetization with electrical poling can be an ideal tool for realization of application potential of this multiferroic material. (C) 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
