Abstract
Bi1-xCaxFeO3 was prepared by the flash autocombustion combustion technique. X-ray diffraction analysis showed a Rhombohedrally distorted hexagonal perovskite structure with space group R3c. The particle size and shape were studied by transmission electron microscope. Magnetization studies at room temperature showed superparamagnetic behavior for the prepared nanoparticles. Magnetoelectric coefficient characterized as magnetic field - induced polarization was investigated. The Lande factor (g), resonance field (B-r), relaxation time (tau), and the energy between two adjacent degenerate spin energy levels (Delta E) were estimated from the electron spin resonance spectra.
