Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Understanding of cation distribution in spinel-type oxides is essential since their magnetic properties highly depend on the cation distribution. The site occupancies of cations in spinel oxides were analyzed using X-rays with energies near absorption edges. The resonant scattering experiments allowed us to distinguish cations that have close number of electrons or the same cations with different valence. Spinel structure has two different crystallographyc sites; tetrahedral site and Octahedral sites. The site occupancies of Mn and Fe for MnxFe3-xO4, Fe2+, Fe3+ and Ti4+ for TixFe3-xO4 was distinctively analyzed. X-ray resonant magnetic scattering experiments with circularly polarized X-ray were also carried out to develop site-selective magnetic moment analysis and theoretical expression for asymmetric ratio was discussed.
