AB  - Single-phase Bi(0.80)La(0.20)FeO(3) (BLFO) and Bi(0.80)La(0.20)Fe(1-x)Nb(x)O(3) 
      (BLFNO) samples were prepared in order to study the dielectric, magnetic and 
      magnetoelectric properties of La and Nb codoped BiFeO3. Rietveld refinement of 
      x-ray diffraction patterns of La and Nb codoped samples has been performed using 
      the R3c space group. Magnetic hysteresis loops revealed that codoping can 
      effectively increase the spontaneous magnetization due to change in the bond 
      angle of Fe-O-Fe as a result of distortion created by the Nb5+ doping. Magnetic 
      field-induced relative change of the dielectric constant for BLFO and BLFNO 
      samples is a signature of magnetoelectric coupling.
