Abstract
The infrared reflection spectra in the region of lattice vibrations (1500–200 cm−1) of ferrite spinels Co1+2xFe2−3xSbxO4 with x=0.0–0.4 are investigated. The permittivity spectra are calculated using the Kramers-Kronig relations. A dispersion analysis of the ε1(v); ε2(v) spectra, carried out using the multiscintillator model, enabled the fine structure of the bands of the spectra to be determined. It was found that for CoFe2O4 ferrite the short-wave band (v=590 cm−1) consists of two components, while the long-wave band (v=375 cm−1) consists of fur components. Since cobalt ferrite is inverted spinel, in which there are only Fe3+ ions in the tetra positions, the doublet structure with v=590 cm−1 must obviously belong to vibrations of the ion groups FeO6 and CoO6, while the second band may belong to vibrations of the ion complexes consisting of the tetra-cation (Fe3+), oxygen and the three closest octa-cations [3Fe], [2Fe1Co], [2Co1Fe] and [3Co]. The replacement of some of the iron ions with antimony leads to the appearance of additional lines from the short-wave edge of both bands. The intensity of these lines increases as the value of the diamagnetic substitution increases, which enables the highest-frequency component to be uniquely related to the vibrations of the complex formed by the tetra-cations Fe3+ or Co2+, the anion and the three octa-cations Sb5+.
