An unambiguous procedure for discovering relaxation influence on M�ssbauer spectra
1994
A mathematical procedure which gives an opportunity to distinguish between relaxation and distribution mechanisms of the Mossbauer line broadening is proposed. It is based on the method of Mossbauer line sharpening developed recently [1] and allows one to answer unambiguously the question whether or not relaxation manifests itself in Mossbauer measurements by examining the wings of the spectrum. The procedure is applied to the spectra of high spin ferric metmyoglobin and (Fe0.65Ni0.35)1−xMnx alloys. Analysis of the metmyoglobin spectra manifests the presence of the relaxation influence in the temperature range 10 K≦T≦100 K. Analysis of the alloy spectra shows that for the temperatures 4 K≦T…
Ni61Mössbauer study of the hyperfine magnetic field near the Ni surface
1987
$^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ M\"ossbauer measurements have been performed at 4.2 K on spherical Ni particles covered with a protective layer of SiO, with average diameter of 500 and 50 \AA{}. The hyperfine magnetic field at $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ nuclei for 500-\AA{} particles has been found to be 78.3(4) kOe, compared with the field for Ni foil of 75.0(2) kOe. The small difference is due to the demagnetization and dipolar fields in 500-\AA{} particles. The spectrum of 50-\AA{} particles has a surface component with the corresponding value of the hyperfine magnetic field of 40.3(5.4) kOe. This strongly indicates that, in accordance with recent theoretical studies, there is a decrease of the hyperfine mag…
Probing the Size Effect of Co2FeGa-SiO2@C Nanocomposite Particles Prepared by a Chemical Approach
2010
In this contribution, we report the chemical synthesis of carbon coated, silica supported Co2FeGa (Co2FeGa-SiO2@C) nanocomposite particles. The particle size of Co2FeGa particles can be tuned by varying the amount of silica supports. The dependences of the crystal structure and magnetic properties on particle size have been investigated by synchrotron radiation based X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope (TEM), 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy, and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). The superparamagnetic critical size of Co2FeGa Heusler nanoparticles is found to be ∼17 nm by correlating the TEM derived par…
Influence of sulphite on the passivation of iron
1991
Abstract Mossbauer spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements were used to study the passivation of iron and steels in a sulphite containing solution. The potentiodynamic curves show that passivation occurs at −140 mV potential vs saturated calomel electrode ( sce ). The main phase of the passive layer was found to be γ-FeOOH, while FeSO 4 ·H 2 O on the surface and FeSO 3 ·3H 2 O inside the layer were identified as minor phases in the case of polarization in a solution of pH 3.37. Only γ-FeOOH was observed on the surface of samples polarized at pH 6.6.
Ultrathin metal films and inorganic clusters via thermodesorption of LB films
1991
Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of cadmium arachidate and ferric stearate were investigated during heating in order to derive information on processes involved in thermodesorption and on the inorganic microstructures left on the substrate after thermodesorption. We studied these processes by X-ray induced photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), interference enhanced reflection (IeR), Nomarsky microscopy, electron microprobe analysis and in the case of Fe57-ions by conversion electron Mossbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). Two different mechanisms of desorption were observed. In the case of cadmium arachidate multilayers it is shown that before desorption the film ruptures laterally and then forms droplets.…
X-ray powder diffraction and LIESST-effect of the spin transition material [Fe(bpp)2](NCS)2·2H2O
2006
Abstract We have studied the X-ray powder diffraction of the spin transition material [Fe(bpp)2](NCS)2 · 2H2O (bpp: 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine) at room temperature. Two crystallographic phases have been observed depending on the sample history of this material. The results obtained corroborate the earlier observations from magnetic and calorimetric studies. Relatively prolonged exposure of the sample to X-rays caused a structural change. LIESST and Reverse-LIESST effects, characterised by 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy, have been observed in this material.
Post-sintering heat treatment effect on the coercivity of sintered (Nd,Dy)15(Fe,Co,Mo,Al)77B8 permanent magnets
2000
Abstract The effect of heat treatment on the intrinsic coercivity, iHc and microstructure were investigated for sintered (Nd,Dy)15(Fe,Co,Mo,Al)77 B8 permanent magnet. The microstructure has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray spectroscopy and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The observed behaviour of iHc may be caused by a superposition of the following effects: (i) the distribution of the nonmagnetic phases and the ratio of the amount of hard magnetic Nd2Fe14B-phase to the amount of the residual phases; (ii) homogeneous distribution of elements in the main phases; (iii) removing the stresses in the phases; and (iv) diffusion of Al, …
Delocalized Nature of theEδ′Center in Amorphous Silicon Dioxide
2005
We report an experimental study by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of E(')(delta) point defect induced by gamma-ray irradiation in amorphous SiO2. We obtained an estimation of the intensity of the 10 mT doublet characterizing the EPR spectrum of such a defect arising from hyperfine interaction of the unpaired electron with a 29Si (I=1/2) nucleus. Moreover, determining the intensity ratio between this hyperfine doublet and the main resonance line of E(')(delta) center, we pointed out that the unpaired electron wave function of this center is actually delocalized over four nearly equivalent silicon atoms.
LIESST Effect in Fe(II) 1,2,4-Triazole Chains
2016
One-dimensional Fe(II) chains with 1,2,4-triazole as bridging ligands present the LIESST effect; i.e. their spin state switched from low-spin to high-spin after light irradiation at low temperature. This account summarizes the findings in this area of photomagnetism where 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy was used as a primary detection tool of the LIESST effect.
