Moessbauer polarimeter and Moessbauer Faraday effect

  • 1. East China Normal Univ., Shanghai (China)

Description

A Moessbauer polarimeter consists of a gamma ray source (polarizer), transmitter (sample to be analyzed), analyzer and automatic counting system. This equipment was used to observe the Moessbauer Faraday effect in non-stoichiometric Fe3O4. Experimental results demonstrated that electronic hopping above the Verwey temperature between Fe2+-Fe3+ ions on the octahedral sites is a only localized phenomenon and the recoilless fractions of 57Fe nuclei in Fe3-vO4 (v = 0.02) are 0.71 for A sites and 0.62 for B sites, respectively
