Single-phase cubic Ba(Fe,Nb)0.5O3 (BFN) powder was synthesized by solid-state reaction at 900, 1000, 1100, 1200 °C for 4 h in air. X-ray diffraction indicated that the BFN oxide mixture calcined at 1200 °C crystallizes to the pure cubic perovskite phase. The crystallite size of the BFN increases sli...
