S. Kamzin, V. P. Rusakov, and L. A. Grigor'ev, in Proceedings of the International Conference "Physics of transition metals,'' USSR-1988, Part 2, p. 271; A. S. Kamzin, and L. A. Grigor'ev, Pisma Zh.

    Notes: Abstract The magnetic properties of the surface layer and bulk of iron-garnet films of composition Y2.6Sm0.4Fe3.7Ga1.3O12, grown by liquid-phase epitaxy on substrates of a gadolinium-gallium garnet single crystal, are investigated. The method of simultaneous gamma-ray, x-ray, and electron Mössbauer spectroscopy is used for the investigations. It is found that the temperature T c(L) of the transition to the paramagnetic state of a thin layer localized at a depth L below the surface within ∼300 nm decreases smoothly with decreasing distance from the surface. The causes of the difference between the temperature of the transition to the paramagnetic state in the surface layer and that bulk of the film are: 1) variation of the degree of substitution of gallium for iron in the surface layer; 2) weakening of exchange interactions at the surface of the sample.

    Notes: Abstract A direct comparison of the magnetic structures of a surface layer and of the bulk of Ba-M-type hexagonal ferrites with iron ions partially replaced by Sc diamagnetic ions (BaFe12−x ScxO19) has been made by simultaneous Mössbauer spectroscopy with detection of gamma rays, characteristic x-ray emission, and electrons. It has been found that, if the magnetic lattice of a Ba-M-type hexagonal ferrite is weakly diluted by Sc diamagnetic ions, a ∼300-nm thick macroscopic layer forms on the surface of a BaFe11.4Sc0.6O19 crystal, in which the iron-ion magnetic moments are noncollinear with the moments in the bulk. The noncollinear magnetic structure forms in the near-surface layer of BaFe12−x ScxO19 crystals because the exchange interaction energy is additionally reduced by the presence of such a “defect” as the surface. This is the first observation in ferromagnetic crystals of an anisotropic surface layer whose magnetic properties, as predicted by Néel, differ from those of the bulk.

    Notes: Abstract First measurements of the effective magnetic fields as a function of the depth at which the iron ions are in the surface layer of α-Fe2O3 and FeBO3 single crystals are reported. The method used is the depth-selective conversion-electron Mössbauer spectroscopy. An analysis of experimental spectra revealed that the magnetic properties of the crystal surface vary smoothly from the bulk to surface characteristics within a layer ∼100 nm thick. The layers lying below ∼100 nm from the surface are similar in properties to the bulk of the crystal, and their spectra consist of narrow lines. The spectral linewidths increase smoothly as one approaches the crystal surface. The spectra obtained from a ∼10-nm thick surface layer consist of broad lines indicating a broad distribution of effective magnetic fields. Calculations show that the field distribution width in this layer is δ=2.1(3) T, for an average value H eff=32.2(4) T. It has been experimentally established that, at room temperature (291 K), the effective magnetic fields smoothly decrease as one approaches the crystal surface. The effective fields in a 2.4(9)-nm surface layer of α-Fe2O3 crystals are lower by 0.7(2)% than the fields at the ion nuclei in the bulk of the sample. In the case of FeBO3, the effective fields decrease by 1.2(3)% in a surface layer 4.9(9) nm thick.

    Notes: Abstract Investigations of the magnetic state of a surface layer ~200 nm thick and of the bulk in macroscopic ferrite crystals of the type Ba-M (BaFe12O19) are performed in the phase transition region around the Curie temperature (T c). The method of simultaneous gamma, x-ray, and electron Mössbauer spectroscopy, which made it possible to compare directly the phase states of the surface and bulk of the sample, is used for the measurements. It is observed experimentally that in BaFe12O19 the transition of a surface layer ~200 nm thick to the paramagnetic state occurs at temperatures below T c. It is established that the transition temperature T c(L) of a thin layer localized at depth L from the surface of the crystal increases with distance from the surface and reaches the value T c at the lower boundary of the “critical” surface layer. Therefore, near T c a nonuniform state in which the crystal is magnetically ordered in the bulk but disordered at the surface is observed. A phase diagram of the states of the surface and of the bulk of macroscopic magnets near the Curie (or Néel) point is proposed on the basis of all the experimental results obtained in the present work as well as previously published results.

    Notes: Abstract A technique of simultaneous gamma-ray, x-ray, and electron Mössbauer spectroscopy is used to study the magnetic structure of the surface layer with direct comparison to the magnetic structure inside single crystal samples of hexagonal Ba-M ferrites, in which part of the iron ions have been replaced by diamagnetic Sc ions (chemical formula BaFe12−δ ScδO9). It is found that when the diamagnetic Sc ions are introduced into the crystal lattice of BaFe12−δ ScδO19 at concentrations (x=0.4 and 0.6) far below the level at which the collinear magnetic structure inside the sample is destroyed, a macroscopic layer of thickness ∼300 nm develops on the surface, in which the magnetic moments of the iron ions are oriented noncollinearly with respect to the moments inside the sample. The deviation 〈θ〉 of the magnetic moments in BaFe11.6Sc0.4O19 was 10° ± 62° for x=0.4, and when the Sc concentration was raised to 0.6, the angle 〈θ〉 increased to 17° ± 62°. The noncollinear magnetic structure in the surface layer in these crystals develops because of further reduction in the energy of the exchange interactions owing to the presence of a “defect,” such as the surface. For the first time, therefore, an anisotropic surface layer whose magnetic properties differ from those in the interior of a sample has been observed experimentally in ferromagnetic crystals, as predicted by Néel [L. Néel, Phys. Radium. 15, 225 (1954)].

    Notes: Abstract A comparative analysis has been carried out of the physical-chemical state of the surface and bulk of single-crystal films of the iron garnet Y2.6Sm0.4Fe3.7Ga1.3O12 on substrates consisting of a gadolinium-gallium garnet single crystal. To carry out this study, we used the method of simultaneous γ-ray, x-ray, and electron Mösbauer spectroscopy, which made it possible to simultaneously extract information from the surface layers and the bulk of the sample. This method was applied using a precision system for the motion for the Mössbauer source. It is shown that the parameters of the hyperfine interactions in the surface layer and in the bulk of the film differ, and that these differences increase towards the surface. This result is explained by the fact that the surface layer is formed as the substrate, together with the synthesized film, is removed from the flux and, consequently, the temperature conditions of synthesis of the bulk and of the surface layer are different.

    Notes: Abstract A study is reported of the temperature dependences of the hyperfine (HF) interaction parameters in a ∼200-nm thick surface layer and in the bulk of macroscopic hexagonal ferrite crystals of the Sr-M type (SrFe12O19 and SrFe10.2Al1.8O19). The method used for the measurements is Mössbauer spectroscopy with simultaneous detection of gamma quanta, characteristic x-ray emission, and electrons, which permits direct comparison of the HF parameters in the bulk and the near-surface layers of a sample. As follows from the experimentally determined temperature dependences of the effective magnetic fields, the fields at the nuclei of the iron ions located in a ∼200-nm thick near-surface layer decrease with increasing temperature faster than those of the ions in the bulk. The transition to paramagnetic state in a ∼200-nm thick surface layer was found to occur 3° below the bulk Curie temperature. This offers the first experimental evidence for the transition to paramagnetic state in a surface layer of macroscopic ferromagnets to take place below the Curie temperature T c for the bulk of the crystal. It has been established that the transition temperature T c (L) of a thin layer at a depth L from the surface of a crystal increases as one moves away from the surface to reach T c at the inner boundary of the surface layer called critical. In the vicinity of T c one observes a nonuniform state, with the crystal being magnetically ordered in the bulk but disordered on the surface. The experimental data obtained were used to construct a phase diagram of surface and bulk states for macroscopic magnets near the Curie (or Néel) temperature.

    Notes: Abstract The magnetic structure of the surface layer of single crystals of hexagonal ferrites of the type Sr-M (SrFe12O19) in which some iron ions are replaced by diamagnetic Al ions is investigated, in direct comparison with the magnetic structure in the bulk of the sample, by the method of simultaneous gamma, x-ray, and electron Mössbauer spectroscopy. It is found that under conditions of diamagnetic dilution of the magnetic lattice of hexagonal ferrites of the type Sr-M by Al ions, a layer ~200 nm thick in which the orientation of the magnetic moments is not collinear with the direction of the moments in the bulk of the sample is observed on the surface of SrFe10.2Al1.8O19 crystals. Thus a “transitional” surface layer has been observed on macroscopic ferromagnetic crystals.

    Notes: Abstract The behavior of the surface and near-surface layers of macroscopic FeBO3 single crystals is studied over the temperature range from 291 K to Neél temperature (T N ) using depth-selective conversion-electron Mössbauer spectroscopy. Three different phases or states, namely, an antiferromagnetically ordered phase (similar to the crystal bulk state), a surface phase, and a transition layer between them coexist near the Neél point in a surface layer ∼500 nm thick. The critical parameters found for the bulk phase agree well with the theoretical critical index νth≅0.63 predicted by the 3D Ising model. As the crystal surface is approached, the critical parameter β increases to 0.51(2) but remains smaller than the value of β=0.8 for the surface of a semi-infinite Heisenberg model. Therefore, the effective dimensionality of the system, being equal to 3 in the bulk, decreases at the crystal surface.
