| Abstract: | 57Fe Mössbauer spectra are presented for synthetic cation-deficient Fe2TiO4 and FeCr2O4 spinel particles (<1μm) at various temperatures. The spectra of ferrimagnetic cation-deficient Fe2TiO4 show characteristic features due to relaxation because of superparamagnetism and spin relaxation in the temperature range 5–294 K. At 5 K and 78 K, a superposition of at least two sextets is observed which appear to arise from Fe3+ onA-sites (Fe A 3+ andB-sites (Fe B 3+ ) of the spinal lattice with magnetic hyperfine fields at 5 K ofB hf ((Fe B 3+ )≈47.5 T andB hf (Fe B 3+ )≈51.0 T, respectively. Cation-deficient FeCr2O4 particles reveal at 78 K a fieldB hf (Fe3+)≈46.9 T and exhibit relaxation spectra as a consequence of superparamagnetism in the temperature range 80 K - ～300 K. At 294 K, quadrupole splitting Δ(Fe A 3+ )=0.92 mm/s and isomer shift δ(Fe A 3+ )=0.29 mm/s (relative to metallic Fe) are measured. For both compounds the magnetic hyperfine fieldsB hf are discussed in terms of supertransferred hyperfine fields involving vacancies and in the case of cation-deficient Fe2TiO4 also diamagnetic Ti4+ neighbours of the Fe ions. |
