Abstract

Mössbauer studies of ceramic samples of the antiferromagnetic perovskite PbFe2/3W1/3O3 have been carried out. It has been established that the temperature of transition to the magnetically ordered state is T N = 365 K. Iron ions in PbFe2/3W1/3O3 are found to reside in the high-spin Fe3+ state. The Fe3+ ions occupy inequivalent positions differing in the nearest cation environment, or more precisely, tungsten and iron ions are distributed in a random manner over the sites of the octahedral sublattice. The inequivalent positions arise as a result of the Fe and W ions being statistically distributed over the octahedral sublattice. For T > 0 K, magnetic fields at the nuclei and, hence, the average thermodynamic values of the magnetic moments of Fe3+ ions occupying inequivalent positions are different and, at a given temperature, are determined by the number of the nearest magnetic neighbors, with the effective magnetic fields (H eff) varying differently with temperature. As the temperature is lowered, the fields H eff level off gradually in response to the effective magnetic fields of iron ions having different numbers of exchange bonds leveling off with decreasing temperature which lowers thermal excitation.
