Recently, multiferroic materials have attracted much attention due to their fascinating fundamental physical properties and potential technological applications in magnetic/ferroelectric data storage systems, quantum electromagnets, spintronics, and sensor devices. Among single-phase multiferroic materials, $BiFeO_3$, in particular, has received considerable attention because of its very interesting magnetoelectric properties for application to spintronics. Enhanced ferromagnetism was found by Fe-site ion substitution with magnetic ions. In this study, $BiFe_{1-x}Ni_xO_3$ (x=0 and 0.05) bulk ceramic compounds were prepared by solid-state reaction and rapid sintering. High-purity $Bi_2O_3$, $Fe_3O_4$ and NiO powders were mixed with the stoichiometric proportions, and calcined at $450^{\circ}C$ for 24 h to produce $BiFe_{1-x}Ni_xO_3$. Then, the samples were directly put into the oven, which was heated up to $800^{\circ}C$ and sintered in air for 20 min. The crystalline structure of samples was investigated at room temperature by using a Rigaku Miniflex powder diffractometer. The Raman measurements were carried out with a Raman spectrometer with 514.5-nm-excitation Ar+-laser source under air ambient condition on a focused area of $1-{\mu}m$ diameter. The field-dependent magnetization and the temperature-dependent magnetization measurements were performed with a vibrating-sample magnetometer. The x-ray diffraction study demonstrates the compressive stress due to Ni substitution at the Fe site. $BiFe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05}O_3$ exhibits the rhombohedral perovskite structure R3c, similar to $BiFeO_3$. The lattice constant of $BiFe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05}O_3$ is smaller than of $BiFeO_3$ because of the smaller ionic radius of Ni3+ than that of Fe3+. The field-dependent magnetization of $BiFe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05}O_3$ exhibits a clear hysteresis loop at 300 K. The magnetic properties of $BiFe_{0.95}Ni_{0.05}O_3$ were improved at room temperature because of the existence of structurally compressive stress.

RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100) 기판위에 $BiFeO_3$ 박막을 증착하였고, 스퍼터링 공정에서 산소량이 $BiFeO_3$ 박막에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $BiFeO_3$ 박막은 XRD 회절패턴의 결과를 통하여 소량의 불순물상이 존재하는 페로브스카이트 구조로 결정화되었다. $O_2$ 가스의 유량은 박막의 미세구조 및 자기적 특성에 많은 영향을 끼친다. $O_2$ 가스의 유량이 증가함에 따라 박막의 표면 거칠기 및 grain size가 증가하였다. $BiFeO_3$ 박막은 상온에서 약자성적인 거동을 보였으며, PFM 측정을 통하여 박막의 미세구조와 압전계수와의 상관관계를 조사하였다.
