Synthesis, Structural and Electrical Properties of Y1-xCaxFeO3 (X = 0.03 and 0.05) Ceramics

Abstract

The single-phase ceramic samples of Perovskite Y1-xCaxFeO3 (YCFO) were synthesized successfully by solid state reaction method. The prepared samples of YCFO were analyzed by roo m temperature X-ray diffraction techniques and the data were fitted with FullProf program which confirmed the orthorhombic symmetry with Pn ma space group. To estimate electrical parameters the samples were analy zed by I-V and dielectric measurement techniques and observed that the overall conductivities enhances with increase in temperature as well as with doping concentration.
