Magnetic behavior of Ho/sub 1/Ba/sub 2/(Cu/sub 1-x/Fe/sub x/)/sub 3/ O/sub 7-y/
We have carried out dc magnetization (x = 0, and 0.05) and /sup 57/Fe Moessbauer spectroscopy (x = 0.05) measurements of Ho/sub 1/Ba/sub 2/(Cu/sub 1/minus/x/Fe/sub x/)/sub 3/O/sub 7/minus/y/ between room temperature (RT) and 4.2K. Based on x-ray diffraction results all samples are single phase, and either orthorhombic (x = 0) or tetragonal (x = 0.05). Magnetization measurements determined the onset T/sub c/ to be either 90K (orthorhombic) or 48K (tetragonal). Moessbauer spectra between RT and 20K are nearly identical, each consisting of three superposed quadrupole doublets. As the temperature is lowered below about 10K, the Moessbauer spectra exhibit paramagnetic relaxation. The relaxation time increases by about two orders of magnitude as the temperature decreases from 10K to 4.2K. No magnetic ordering of the Fe moments was observed. 9 refs., 4 figs.
