Abstract

The process for the synthesis of multiferroic polycrystalline particlesY CrO3by the combustion method insolution is presented and its characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The combustion process was carried out at 350◦C, and a dark green soft and fluffy material was obtained.The material was heat treated, after which the TEM images shown particles of about 250 nm, with orderedcrystal planes. Data obtained by XRD was used for a Rietveld refinement of the obtained spectrum. As wellas structural parameters fractional atomic positions show excellent correspondence with distorted orthorhombicperovskite structure reported in literature [1].
