    The Effect of Mn3+ Substitution on the Electric Field Gradient in a HoFe1−xMnxO3 (x = 0–0.7) System

    by Yuriy V. Knyazev, Maksim S. Pavlovskii, Timofei D. Balaev, Sergey V. Semenov, Stanislav A. Skorobogatov, Aleksey E. Sokolov, Denis M. Gokhfeld, Kirill A. Shaykhutdinov

    The effect of the Mn3+ ion on the local distortions of FeO6 octahedra in orthoferrite samples was investigated. Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements for a series of HoFe1−xMnxO3 (x = 0–0.7) orthoferrite samples with the space group Pnma were carried out at temperatures above the Néel point (700 K). The electric field gradient (EFG) tensor on Fe ions for these compounds was found using first-principle calculations. The concentration dependence of quadrupole splitting was obtained using experimental and theoretical data. Mn3+ cations were found to affect the Mössbauer spectra mainly due to distortions of the crystal lattice. Theoretical calculations show that the values of all electric field gradient components increase significantly with the manganese concentration in the system, and the eigenvectors exx and eyy of the electric field gradient tensor sharply change their direction at concentrations of x > 0.1.

    Effect of Mn3 Substitution on the Electric Field Gradient in HoFe1-xMnxO3 (X=0.0–0.7) System

    The effect of the Mn3+ ion on the local distortions of the FeO6 octahedra in orthoferrite samples was investigated. Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements for a series of the HoFe1−xMnxO3 (x=0.0−0.7) orthoferrite samples with space group Pnma was carried out at temperatures above the Néel point (700 K). The electric field gradient (EFG) tensor on Fe ions for these compounds was found using the first-principle calculations. The concentration dependence of the quadrupole splitting was resulted from the experimental and theoretical data. The absence of an electron contribution to the quadrupole splitting at all the manganese concentrations was demonstrated. It was shown by the theoretical calculations that the values of all the electric field gradient components increase significantly with the manganese concentration in the system, and the eigenvectors Vxx and Vyy of the electric field gradient tensor sharply change their direction at concentrations of x > 0.1.
