Magnetoelectric multiferroics are materials which exhibit both magnetic order and ferroelectricity in the same phase. Multiferroic materials, where ferroelectricity and magnetism coexist, were extensively studied. This class of materials offers a large application potential for new devices due to the two coupled degrees of freedom based on the local off-centered distortion and the electron spin. The studied Bi_5Ti_3FeO_{15} ceramics was prepared by conventional synthesis and hot uniaxial pressing reaction applying the conventional mixture of TiO_2, Fe_2O_3 and Bi_2O_3 oxides as precursor materials. The present work focuses on the structure analysis of multiferroic Bi_5Ti_3FeO_{15} ceramics performed by X-ray diffraction method, scanning electron microscopy and the Mössbauer spectroscopy methods.
