A composite of two homostructured materials i.e. perovskites (ABO3) namely Ba0.5K0.5TiO3 and La0.8Sr0.2MnO3has been prepared efficiently through ceramic synthesis route. The parent materials in ratio 1:1 were taken to make acomposite. Analysis of the XRD data confirmed the single phased crystalline cubic structure with assigned space groupPm-3m. The single phaseness is found to occur due to higher sintering temperature. Using classical Scherer formula, thecalculated particle size was found to be of the order of 36 nm. Retvield refinement of the data clears the structure andother essential parameters regarding structure. The surface morphology studies confirmed increase in average particlesize and energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDAX) technique revealed the presence of all the constituents of thematerial under investigation. The dielectric studies were carried out and the sample was found to exhibit appreciabledielectric behaviour.
