We investigate the structural, magnetic, and dielectric properties of Bi6Fe2Ti3−2xNbxCoxO18 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4). The room-temperature ferromagnetism is observed in the Nb and Co co-doped samples compared with the paramagnetic behavior in Bi6Fe2Ti3O18. The ferromagnetism in Bi6Fe2Ti3−2xNbxCoxO18 can be understood in terms of spin canting of the antiferromagnetic coupling of the Fe-based and Co-based sublattices via Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction. Moreover, doping Co at Ti sites can significantly enhance the ferromagnetic Curie temperature compared with the substitution of Co for Fe in the Aurivillius compounds. The dielectric loss of Bi6Fe2Ti3−2xNbxCoxO18 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) exhibits a relaxation process. The rather large activation energy in the 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.3 samples implies that the relaxation process is not due to the thermal motion of oxygen vacancies inside ceramics.
