The impact of incorporating various dopants into both A and B sites of the BiFeO3 was investigated, and structural, Raman, dielectric, electric, and magnetic properties were studied. X-ray diffraction analysis and Raman spectroscopy revealed a rhombohedral structure with the R3c space group for the doped material (BBEFCMO). Dielectric properties were examined across a frequency range of 102\u2013106 Hz. The present multiferroic material exhibits a colossal dielectric constant and minimal dielectric loss tangent, making it suitable for applications in energy storage. Furthermore, the Cole-Cole type of relaxation was deduced from the imaginary part of the modulus for both grain and boundary-grain contributions. Overall, this study indicates that substituting ions in both A and B sites of BiFeO3 significantly enhances its multiferroic properties, as evidenced by dielectric and magnetic measurements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cryst14050445","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,7]],"date-time":"2024-05-07T09:03:38Z","timestamp":1715072618000},"page":"445","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Structural, Dielectric, Electrical, and Magnetic Characteristics of Bi0.8Ba0.1Er0.1Fe0.96Cr0.02Mn0.02O3 Nanoparticles"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Bougoffa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratoire de Physique Appliqu\u00e9e, Facult\u00e9 des Sciences, Universit\u00e9 de Sfax, B.P. 1171, Sfax 3000, Tunisia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4051-878X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"E.
