Mössbauer Spectroscopy On Selectred Magnetic Compounds
The applications of magnetic materials are related to their magnetic and crystal structure as well as electronic properties. In this thesis, mainly experimental methods have been focussed on novel materials and bulk materials. A selection of materials were studied by several techniques like Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray and neutron diffraction and magnetisation measurements. New technology allow us to prepare artificial materials with unic magnetic properties. Magnetic multilayers are very interesting not only from phenomenological point of view but also as good applications materials. In this work will be shown some results from Fe/V and Fe/Co multilayer system The (Fe1-xMnx)3P system has been studied at both ends of the composition range. At the Fe-rich end, compounds exhibiting ferromagnetic ordering are formed, while at the Mn-rich end, an antiferromagnetic coupling was discovered. The experimental results are supported by theoretical calculations. Rare-earth compounds with focus on Fe0.65Er0.2B0.15 were studied by means of traditional Mössbauer spectroscopy, Monochromatic Circular Polarized Mössbauer Spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetic mesurements. This compound shows interesting behaviour of Fe magnetic moment at low and room temperature. The first magnetic studies on rhombohedral Li3Fe2(PO4)3 at low temperature has also been made and an antiferromagnetic structure was revealed
Studies of the Magnetite Nanoparticles by Means of Mössbauer Spectroscopy
The magnetite nanoparticles were prepared by modified Massart's method in water and in alcohol. The influence of the condition of preparation on the properties of magnetite nanoparticles were investigated by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The size of the particles were determined by transmission electron microscopy. It was shown that the particles size in the alcoholic reaction is smaller than in aqueous reaction. Moreover, the increase in the reaction time improves the stoichiometry of magnetite nanoparticles
Chemical preparation of core - shell nanoparticles
Nanoparticles obtained during layer-by-layer chemical deposition have been obtained. The particles diameter varied between 5 nm and 9 nm and can be tuned by changing molarity of the synthesis ingredients. The intention was the creation of copper or iron oxide layer during the process. Layer composition were changed using Cu rich or Fe rich ingredients. Magnetic properties of the particles strongly depend on the composition of covered material, indicating for their core-shell structure
Structure of Iron Ions in Some Acetone Based Electrolytes
X-ray absorption, Mössbauer, and Raman spectroscopy were combined to determine the local environment of iron ions in acetone based solutions of FeCl2. It is shown that part of the Fe(II) ions change their oxidation state, accompanied by symmetry change from octahedral Fe(H2O)6(2+) to tetrahedral [FeCl4](-) at large acetone concentrations. The ratio of Fe(II)/Fe(III) determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy agrees well with that determined by the X-ray absorption studies. Raman measurements confirm quantitative estimations of [FeCl4](-) species in acetone rich solutions
Mössbauer Studies of Core-Shell Nanoparticles.
The ferrite magnetic nanoparticles with core-shell structures were obtained in two step preparation process. The Mössbauer spectra obtained for particles of pure maghemite or magnetite and two layered core-shell one the magnetite on maghemite and maghemite on magnetite are very different from each other. The presented results show that interparticle and intraparticle interaction plays important role in overall magnetic properties as well
Layered magnetite nanoparticles modification : synthesis, structure, and magnetic characterization
Core-shell and multilayered nanoparticles based on magnetite core with different metallic spacing and over-layers are prepared in one pot synthesis and characterized. The spacer layers were made from Au, Cu or Ag precursors. The nanoparticles were fabricated by a modified chemical seed based method. The obtained nanoparticles were examined by X-ray diffraction, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy, Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Infrared spectroscopy. Magnetic properties of the nanoparticles were tested by Mossbauer spectroscopy and Magnetometry. Magnetization and Mossbauer measurements show that the presence of the metallic layers influences the magnetic state of the particles. XRD and EDX confirm layered structures of nanoparticles. Proposed synthesis allows for fabrication of layered particles with controlled morphology and register properties changes which are related to the nature of each subsequent layer
Determination of hyperfine fields and atomic ordering in NiMnFeGe exhibiting martensitic transformation
The hyperfi ne fi elds and atomic ordering in Ni1−xFexMnGe (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) alloys were investigated
using X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy at room temperature. The X-ray diffraction measurements
show that the samples with x = 0.2, 0.3 crystallized in the hexagonal Ni2In-type of structure, whereas in the
sample with x = 0.1, the coexistence of two phases, Ni2In- and orthorhombic TiNiSi-type of structures, were
found. The Mössbauer spectra measured with x = 0.2, 0.3 show three doublets with different values of isomer
shift (IS) and quadrupole splitting (QS) related to three different local surroundings of Fe atoms in the hexagonal
Ni2In-type structure. It was shown that Fe atoms in the hexagonal Ni2In-type structure of as-cast Ni1−xFexMnGe
alloys are preferentially located in Ni sites and small amount of Fe is located in Mn and probably in Ge sites.
The spectrum for x = 0.1 shows the doublets in the central part of spectrum and a broad sextet. The doublets
originate from the Fe atoms in the paramagnetic state of hexagonal Ni2In-type structure, whereas the sextet
results from the Fe atoms in orthorhombic TiNiSi-type structure
