Abstract

Hyperfine electric and magnetic interactions in Y1−z Ca z Ba2Cu3−x Fe x O6+y compounds have been studied for different rates of Fe and Ca substitution (x=0.09 and 0.24;z=0.24;y=0−1) by57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy of powder samples obtained by different thermal treatments. Calculations of the Fe3+ EFG tensor have been performed for different coordination polyhedra in Cu1 and Cu2 sites. Variations of the direction, amplitude and of the sign of the principal component of the EFG are reported versus the iron displacement from the ideal Cu sites inside the pyramidal and tetrahedral coordination polyhedra. Calculated ΔE Q and η values are compared with the experimental ones. For the Cu2 site, faithfully probed in both oxygen-depleted and oxygen-saturated samples by fairly large fraction of residing iron atoms, the mutual orientations of the axes of the principal EFG component and that of easiest magnetization are deduced from interrelations between quadrupole parameters for paramagnetic quadrupolar and magnetic Zeeman Mössbauer spectra. In the desoxygenated samples, the coexistence of a long range 2D antiferromagnetic order and of a spin-glass order has been evidenced. For the oxygen-saturated samples, the two-dimensional spin-glass order is observed belowT f =10 K. The Mössbauer spectra under applied fields at 4.2 K show an easy polarization of the spins in the Cu2 sites.
