Abstract Using NMR, anisotropy of the hyperfine field on 57Fe nuclei was measured in Y3Fe5O12 with nonmagnetic, trivalent substitutions on d (Ga3+) and a (Y3+ - yttrium antisite defect) sites which are occupied by ferric ions in a pure, stoichiometric system. The measurements were performed by the spin-echo method at liquid helium temperature. Thorough analysis of the hyperfine field anisotropy on the 57Fe nuclei in an ideal environment and in an environment where one of Fe3+ nearest cation neighbours is replaced by the nonmagnetic impurity is given. When the Fe3+ on which the NMR is measured is on the a site and the impurity is Ga3+(d), the results may be interpreted in terms of the superposition model. On the other hand, the results for Fe3+ on the d site and Y3+(a) are in clear disagreement with the predictions of this model.
