Abstract
The 57Fe doped LiMnPO4 cathode with potential applications in Li-ion batteries was prepared by solid-state reaction. The magnetic susceptibility ordered antiferromagnetically at Néel temperature (TN = 34 K). The spin reorientation temperature (TS) and effective moment were determined to be 8 K and 5.78 μB. We obtained the Mössbauer spectra at various temperatures and fitted the spectra below TN to eight absorption lines. The behavior of the magnetic hyperfine field and the quadrupole splitting change with increasing temperature above TS indicates that the quenched orbital angular moment is due to a strong crystal field at the Mn(Fe)O6 site.
