Dy doped BiFeO$_3$ : A Bulk Ceramic with Improved Multiferroic Properties Compared to Nano Counterparts [PDF]
The synthesis as well as structural, multiferroic and optical characterization of Dy doped BiFeO$_3$ multiferroic ceramic are presented. Bulk polycrystalline Bi$_{0.9}$Dy$_{0.1}$FeO$_3$ sample is synthesized by solid state reaction, while their nano counterparts are prepared using ultrasonic probe sonication technique.

Simple 4-segment thermal cycling pyroelectric measurement protocol for differentiating between ferroelectric and non-ferroelectric materials [PDF]
The rare-earth chromates (RECrO$_3$) and manganites (REMnO$_3$) where, RE = Eu, Y, Dy, Ho, Gd are constantly under scrutiny in search of room temperature magnetoelectric multiferroics. However, the artefacts and undesirable signal in some of the measurements pose a severe challenge in confirming the ferroelectric (FE) phase, especially in reference to ...
