(0≤x≤0.10) ceramics samples are synthesized by solid state reaction and planetary ball milling
technique. The structural, magnetic and electrical properties have been investigated over an wide range of temperature and
magnetic field. It is observed that a structural phase transformation has occured for 20% Ba doped BFO. The rhombohedral
crystal structure is transformed into a pseudo cubic structure causing a change in the unit cell volume and also that of the
nanocrystalite. The FESEM images taken in different magnification shows that the grains are segregated into different clusters
with a wide range of size distribution from 100-300 nm. The composition was later doped with Ti to observe the effect of Ti
doping on the magnetic and electrical properties of the material.The dc magnetization shows that Ba doped Bismuth Ferrite
samples is ferromagnetic with a significant magnetization. However with increasing Ti concentration the magnetization has
decreased. The low temperature hysteresis shows diamagnetism for 10% Ti concentration which is regarded as a magnetic
phase transition making this composition an interesting material for technological application. It is observed that the highest
magnetization is achieved for 20% Ba doped BFO which indicate that there is a possible suppression of long cycloidal spin
structure resulting in an enhanced magnetization. The introduction of Ba
2+
ion at Bi
3+
site is likely to induce oxygen vacancy
which is one of the origins of leakage current. The change in orientation of FeO
6
due to the change of coordination of Fe is also
assumed to be another origin of leakage current .We predict that the introduction of Ti
4+
ion at the Fe site compensates for
the oxygen vacancy and reduce the leakage current. In addition the introduction of Ti
4+
is likely responsible for the increased
resistivity of the material. The measured ac dielectric constant, dielectric loss, ac permeability at different temperatures show
a strong frequency dependent behavior. The room temperature dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor have shown high
values at low frequency and have decreased rapidly with increasing frequency.
