Description

One of the four quadrupole doublets (A,B,C, and D) observed in Moessbauer spectra of orthorhombic (Y or RE)1Ba2(Cu1-xFex)3O7-δ(δ ≅ 0) samples is identified with Fe dopant replacing a Cu site in twin planes. The site in question, labelled as D, is characterized by a quadrupole splitting ΔD in the range 1.6±0.1 mm/s. The D-site intensity is found to approach zero when the 1-2-3 material is driven tetragonal, either upon oxygen desorption, upon oxygen loading, or upon increasing the Fe-dopant concentration.
