      abstract     = {BiFeO3 ceramics have been consolidated applying an electric
                      current activated/assisted sintering (ECAS) methodology
                      under different electrical conditions. DC experiments
                      produce a flash sintering regime by which the bulk
                      cylindrical specimens densify in a few seconds; however,
                      this goes together with a strong localization of the current
                      flow within the material, leading to a dramatic lack of
                      microstructural and compositional homogeneity. The situation
                      changes under the alternate field; a more gradual FAST
                      (Field Assisted Sintering) event is produced which allows
                      the attainment of an exceptional microstructural homogeneity
                      through the whole sintered compacts. Upon Ti-doping the
                      overall diffusivity of the system is delayed but the AC
                      conditions again yield a remarkable microstructural
                      homogeneity in the consolidated material, this time even at
                      the nanoscale level. Accordingly, bulk BiFeO3 ceramics with
                      homogeneous micro-nanostructure can be successfully prepared
                      by an ECAS methodology and at lower temperatures and much
                      shorter times than by conventional solid-state sintering.},
