Solid solutions 0.7Bi1−xLax (Fe0.9Cr0.1) O3–0.1BaTiO3–0.2PbTiO3 (BLxFOC-BT-PT, with x = 0, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07) solid solutions were prepared by the traditional ceramic process. X-ray diffraction results reveal that all samples show pure pseudocubic perovskites structure. The lattice parameter of the solid solutions increases linearly with the La content, indicating that La ions have entered crystal lattices to form a solid solution. The Curie temperature of the solid solutions decreases with the La content. Room-temperature polarization–electric field (P–E) curves indicate that the samples with x = 0.03 and 0.05 exhibit saturated P–E loops. Piezoelectric constant d33 of the solid solutions increases firstly and then decreases. Magnetizations of the solid solutions decrease with the La content. The evidence of weak ferromagnetism and saturated ferroelectric hysteresis loops in BLxFOC–BT–PT system at room temperature makes it a good candidate for multiferroic applications.
