Magnetic properties of titanomagnetites Fe3−xTixO4 (0≤x<1)

Abstract: Magnetization measurements have been carried out for Fe3−xTixO4 single crystals in the range 0≤x<1. The calculated cubic K1 anisotropy constant passes through a minimum at x≊0.2 and rises abruptly for larger x. This behavior can be correlated with progressive increase in Fe2+ occupancy of the tetrahedral interstices for x≳0.2.

“…6), the spontaneous magnetization increases initially with temperature and exhibits a maximum value for some temperature T, in the range 0oToT C . A similar variation has been observed experimentally [5,6]. This effect can be physically interpreted by considering the effect of the dominant antiferromagnetic AB coupling as follows: when the Ti concentration increases, we note that (a) Fe 2+ ions enter the tetrahedral sites (for x40.2); and (b) the fraction of Fe 3+ ions decreases faster at octahedral sites (Fig.…”

“…Intermediate composition titanomagnetites (0oxo1) are complex spinels, with three different metal cations and valence states (Fe 2 þ , Fe 3 þ and Ti 4 þ ), and significant work has been done with synthetic samples to deduce the degree, form and temperature dependence of cation order and to understand its effects on fundamental magnetic properties [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]12,[19][20][21][22] . In natural titanomagnetites, additional complexity is added by the common presence of substituted cations (for example, Al, Mg and Mn) and variable degrees of cation deficiency, and we are unaware of any previous studies linking changes in fundamental properties such as T C to reordering of the cation distribution in natural titanomagnetites.…”

“…Ferrimagnetism in these materials arises from an antiferromagnetic coupling of the A and B sublattices of the inverse spinel structure, with a net spontaneous magnetization that is determined by the proportions and the valence states of the magnetic cations in the A (tetrahedral) and B (octahedral) sites [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] . The Curie temperature (T C ) is directly related to the strength of the exchange interactions within and especially between the sublattices, which in turn depend on the site occupancy of the magnetic cations [13][14][15] .…”

“…The behavior for titanomagnetite RT‐SIRM during cycling to low temperature is not well documented in the literature. However, the temperature dependence of its LT‐SIRM is observed to follow the temperature dependence of the anisotropy constant [ Kakol et al , 1991; Moskowitz et al , 1998], and the Verwey transition in single crystals is suppressed with a Ti content as little as 0.4% [ Kakol et al , 1994]. Therefore RT‐SIRM results in Figure 8b clearly demonstrate the presence of stoichiometric multidomain magnetite in the HD sample and magnetite particles that are more oxidized or much finer in the LD sample.…”
