it is a type of bonding which take place between atoms in a compound ;in which one atom has lone pair of  electron and  other has vacant orbital placed adjacent to each other.

 A compound which posses back bonding  has pi bonding character  because it occurs after formation of sigma bond.

  Usually ; back bonding causes molecule to get  stable as it  completes octet. 

for ex. in borontriflouride ,

back bonding causes decrease in bond length and increase in bond order.
