Cation distributions estimated using the magnetic moments of the spinel ferrites Co_(1-x)Cr_xFe_2O_4 at 10K

（A）[B]2O4 ferrite samples with the composition COl_xCrxFe204 （0.0 ≤ x ≤1.0） are prepared using a hydrothermal method, and subjected to calcining in a tube furnace with an argon-flow at 1673 K for 2 h. X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that each of all the samples has a single phase cubic spinel structure with a space group of Fd3m. Magnetic measurements show that the saturation magnetization decreases with as the Cr content x increases. The cation distribution of the samples is estimated by fitting the dependence of the magnetic moments on x at l 0 K, using the quantum mechanical model previously proposed by our group. The calculated sum of the content values of the Cr3＋ and Cr2＋ cations occupying the （A） sites increases as the value of x increases. In the fitting process, the magnetic moment directions of the Cr3＋ and Cr2＋ cations are assumed to be antiparallel to those of the Fe and Co cations, respectively, which is in accordance with Hund＇s rules.     

钙钛矿锰氧化物La_(2/3)Sr_(1/3)Fe_xMn_(1-x)O_3的结构与磁性研究

本文利用溶胶-凝胶法制备了名义成分为La_(2/3)Sr_(1/3)Fe_xMn_(1-x)O_3(x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.5)的系列样品,样品先后经过773,873,1073 K热处理,热处理时采用缓慢升温方式,X射线衍射分析表明,该系列样品均为单相钙钛矿结构,空间群为R3c,利用X'Pert HighScore Plus软件计算了样品的晶粒尺寸、晶格常数、晶胞体积及键长、键角,利用物理性能测量系统测量了样品的磁性,发现样品在10K的磁矩随掺杂量的增加而减小,但存在两个明显不同的变化区域:从x=0到x=0.2时,平均每个分子的磁矩从2.72μB迅速下降到0.33μB,居里温度从327 K下降到95 K,下降了232 K;而从x=0.2到x=0.5时,平均每个分子的磁矩从0.33μB缓慢下降到0.05μB,居里温度从95K下降到46K,只下降了49K,我们认为Fe与Mn离子磁矩反平行是样品磁矩随Fe掺杂量增加而下降的原因之一。
