Lead-free magnetoelectric composites (1 ̶ x)K 0.5 Na 0.5 NbO 3 -(x)BaFe 12 O 19 (x = 30, 40, and 50 wt%) are synthesized using solid state reaction method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirm formation of diphase composites. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) gives information about grain size, connectivity, and microstructure of constituent phases. Dielectric parameters of composite samples are studied as a function of temperature and the transition temperatures corresponding to both the constituent phases are observed in the composite samples. Dielectric constant has been found to decrease with addition of ferrite. Room temperature multiferroic behaviour has been confirmed using P-E and M-H hysteresis loops and magnetoelectric measurement. Polarization is found to decrease; however, magnetization increases with ferrite weight percentage. The highest α ME of 4.08 mV/(cm⋅Oe) is obtained for x = 30 wt% composite and it is realized that ferrite content significantly affects magnetoelectric behaviour.devices [6]. Large scale applications of ME composites given their higher ME coupling than that of single phase materials make them a beguiling research concern. ME coupling in the composites is basically a product property arising due to combination of magnetostrictive (magnetic/mechanical) phenomena in ferrite and piezoelectric (meachanical/electrical) phenomena of ferroelectric phases [7]. ) x [12], etc. are studied in the previous years. Generally for fabrication of good ME composites, the piezoelectric and magnetostrictive coefficients of constituent ferroelectric and ferrite phases should be high respectively. Furthermore high resistivity is equally desirable for avoiding leakage of charges [13]. K 0.5 Na 0.5 NbO 3 (KNN) has been considered as a bright prospect as a ferroelectric constituent for fabrication of lead-free ME composites. KNN exhibits reasonably well ferroelectric, piezoelectric, and dielectric characteristics. It exhibits high piezoelectric charge constant (d 33 ≈ 80-416 pC/N) and a high planar coupling coefficient (k P ≈ 45%) [14][15][16]. It also exhibits large remnant polarization and coercive field (P r = 21 μC/cm 2 , E c = 7.2 kV/cm, P r = 20 μC/cm 2 , and E c = 8 kV/cm) [14,17]. The M-type hexaferrites are widely studied materials due to their unique physical properties. The hexagonal ferrites including BaFe 12 O 19 (BHF) have magneto-plumbite structure. The crystal structure of BHF and diamagnetically doped BHF may be described by two space group viz. P6 3 /mmc (No. 194) and P6 3 mc (No. 186). The latter one is a non-centrosymmetric space group and is generally used to describe the crystal structure in order to explain the existence of non-zero spontaneous polarization [18,19]. These ferrites are usually termed as hard ferrites because of their high electrical resistivity, saturation magnetization, coercivity, and mechanical hardness [20]. At higher frequencies, hexaferrites have low-eddy current losses and high resistivity as compared to other magnetic materials [21]. ...
