Mossbauer Effect. Applications to Magnetism
The magnetic field at iron nuclei was determined in the ferromagnetic transition metals (Fe 3.42 x 105 gauss, Co 3.12 x 105 gauss, Ni 2.80 x 105 gauss at O deg K), but no hyperfine structure was observed down to 4 deg K in the antiferromagnetic transition metals, Mn and Cr. In the case of yttrium-iron garnet the fields at the iron atoms in the two types of sites were obtained (tetrahedral 3.9 x 105 gauss, octahedral 4.7 x 105 gauss). The most complete analysis so far was made in FeF2 where the magnetic field in the antiferromagnetic state (HT=O/ = 3.40 x 105 gauss) and the quadrupole splltting in the paramagnetlc state (31.2 Mc/sec) were obtained. Other materials under investigation are the iron oxides and some ferrites, where, for trivalent iron, fields in the vicinity of 5.0 x 105 gauss were found.
