The effect of Ti^4+ doping was studied by using the Moessbauer spectroscopy measurements at room temperature. From the analysis of the Moessbauer spectra, it is observed that s-electron density, electric field gradient (EFG), quadrupole coupling constant (QCC) and the net hyperfine magnetic fields acting on the Moessbauer nuclei-FeA^3+ and FeB^3+ change with the increase of Ti^4+ doping in Mg0.95Mn0.05Fe2O4. The hyperfine magnetic field decreases with the increase of Ti^4+ doping.展开更多

From the Moessbauer study, it is observed that the :esolved hyperfine sextets are due to the distribution of Fe ions on the two sublattices of the spinel ferrites. The value of the isomer shift obtained from the fitting of the Moessbauer spectra indicates that Fe ions are in +3 state. A paramagnetic doublet is observed at :iegree of inversion x=0.4, superimposed on the hyperfine sextets, indicating that the super-exchange interaction A-B decreases due to :he dilution of sublattice by Al^3+ ions. The hyperfine magnetic field decreases at both interstitial sites of tetrahedral (A) and 3ctahedral (B) with the increase in Al concentration.展开更多
