Impact on activation energy with elevating calcination temperature of barium bismuth ferrite nanocomposite

Barium Bismuth Ferrite nanoparticles having the general formula Ba1-xBixFeO3 were successfully made by the sol-gel system, using nitrates as the fundamental material. Tartaric acid and polyvinyl alcohol were used as chelating agents. The synthesized nanoparticle powder was sintered at 650 ̊C and 750 ̊C for 3 h. Filtering with dilute nitric acid and distilled water is used to remove the impurities. The structural, optical, and dielectric properties were determined at room temperature. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, structure, lattice parameter, microstrain, and dislocation density were calculated. Using the Scherrer equation, the peak's crystalline size was ascertained. In FTIR, the vibrational modes of the octahedral and tetrahedral metal complexes in the sample have been studied using the wavenumber in this range. The synthesized nanocomposite contains morphological features, such as interconnecting agglomerates with spherical, irregular, or non-uniform elongated shapes, as demonstrated by SEM images. The activation energy for relaxation and activation energy for conduction was measured from the Cole-Cole plot and the AC conductivity versus frequency plot respectively. The determined activation energies from the two investigations were relatively close to one another. The Barium Bismuth Ferrite nanoparticles samples at room temperature indicate that the samples have implicit candidates for information storage devices for spintronic devices. In the high frequency range, all samples depending upon the temperature demonstrate excellent dielectric behaviour and small dielectric loss, and with stable dielectric constant, these samples make their prospective for the practical application in spintronic devices the main goal of this work.
