摘要
(Zn1-xFexO)-Fe-57 (x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.03) compounds were fabricated using the solid-state reaction method. In order to determine the magnetic behavior and ionic state of the doped transition metal (Fe-57) in ZnO, we carried out Mossbauer measurements at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 295 K. Mossbauer spectra for Zn-0.97 (Fe0.03O)-Fe-57 at 13 K have shown the ferromagnetic phase (sextet) and paramagnetic phase (doublet), but the only paramagnetic phase (doublet) is seen at 295 K. The hysteresis loop below 77 K for Zn-0.97 (Fe0.03O)-Fe-57 indicated the coexistence of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
