Abstract:
The observations of room temperature ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism for GdMnO₃ (GMO) ceramics have been reported in this paper. The nanocrystalline GMO powder was synthesized by chemical route and then sintered in the form of bulk pellet at 850 °C for 24 h by following slow step sintering schedule. Bulk GMO sample is observed to be polycrystalline in nature having orthorhombic perovskite structure and Pbnm space group. Well connected grains are observed with higher percentage of porosity in the micrographs obtained from field emission scanning electron microscope. The dielectric anomaly has been observed for the sintered sample at 338 K and a wide ferroelectric hysteresis loop has also been observed at room temperature. Room temperature dielectric constant (ε) value of the sample is high (~2736) at the frequency of 100 Hz. The zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) magnetizations shows the antiferromagnetic behavior around 12 K. Sample shows a weak ferromagnetic behavior at 3 K.

This experiment duplicates J.J. Thomson's famous experiment at the end of the 19th century, in which he measured the charge-to-mass ratio of the electron. In combination with Robert A. Millikan's oil-drop experiment a few years later that produced a value for the charge of the electron, the experiments enabled scientists to find, for the first time, both the mass and the charge of the electron, which are key...
