Abstract

The olivine structured $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ material was prepared by solid state method, and was analyzed by x-ray diffractometer (XRD), superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structure of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined to be orthorhombic (space group: Pnma) by Rietveld refinement method. The value of N$\acute{e}$el temperature ($T_N$) for $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined 50 K. The temperature dependence of the magnetization curves showed magnetic phase transition from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic at $T_N$ by SQUID measurement. M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ showed 2 absorption lines at temperatures above $T_N$ and showed asymmetric 8 absorption lines at temperatures below $T_N$. These spectra occurred due to the magnetic dipole and electric quardrupole interaction caused by strong crystalline field at asymmetric $FeO_6$ octahedral sites.

Olivine 구조인 $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ 분말 시료를 직접합성법(solid state method) 으로 제조하였으며, 결정학적 및 자기적 특성을 x-선 회절(x-ray diffractometer), 초전도 양자 간섭계(superconducting quantum interference devices) 및 뫼스바우어 분광(M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy) 실험을 이용하여 연구하였다. $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ 시료의 결정구조는 공간그룹이 Pnma인 orthorhombic 구조임을 Rietveld 정련법으로 분석하였다. $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ 시료의 닐온도 (N$\acute{e}$el temperature; $T_N$)는 50 K으로 나타내었고 닐온도에서 자기 상전이가 일어나는 것을 초전도 양자 간섭계 실험을 통하여 확인하였다. Fe(Mn)-O 이온간 거리를 분석하여 $FeO_6(MnO_6)$ 팔면체 구조가 비대칭임을 확인하였고 그 구조로 인하여 강한 결정장에 영향을 받으며, 닐온도 이상에서 자기 2중극자 상호작용은 사라지고, 강한 결정장에 의한 전기 4중극자 작용만이 존재하여 두 개의 흡수선이 나타나는 것을 뫼스바우어 분광 실험을 통하여 분석하였다.
