The change of Morin transition temperature in nanocrystalline α-Fe_2O_3

THE magnetic property of the ultrafine particles differs from that ot the bulk materials and has a lot of applications. Because of the size effect, magnetically ordered materials exhibit both superparamagnetism and collective magnetic excitation, and the magnetic transition temperature changes in the ultrafine particles with respect to the bulk materials as well. Bulk α-Fe2O3 is weakly ferromagnetic above the Morin transition temperature TM

α－Fe_2O_3超微粒的^（57）Fe穆斯堡尔谱

利用沉淀法制备α－Ｆｅ＿２Ｏ＿３超微粒，用Ｘ射线衍射仪和扫描电镜对样品的结构和粒度进行了分析，并在室温下测量了不同粒度样品的穆斯堡尔谱。结果表明，α－Ｆｅ＿２Ｏ＿３超微粒存在明显的超顺磁现象，在室温至８０Ｋ的温度范围内测量了一个样品（１７ｎｍ）的穆斯堡尔谱，未见莫林（Ｍｏｒｉｎ）转变．随着粒度和测量温度的改变，样品的穆斯堡尔谱的超顺磁成分、同质异能移位、四极分裂、内磁场都发生了变化。对上述穆斯堡尔参数的变化进行了讨论。
