L $i_{0.5}$F $e_{2.5-{\chi}}$R $h_{\chi}$ $O_4$ ($\chi$ = 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00) has been prepared by solid state reaction. Crystallographic and magnetic properties were investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy, SQUID magnetometry, and x-ray diffraction. The crystal structure is found to be a cubic spinel structure with space group Fd3m for all the samples. The lattice constant $a_{0}$ increases from 8.3365 $\AA$ to 8.3932 $\AA$ with increasing Rh concentration $\chi$. The migration of Li ion has been confirmed by x-ray patterns and the results of applied field Mossbauer analysis. The temperature dependence of the absorption area of each site was analyzed with the Debye model for the recoil-free fraction. The Debye temperature for the octahedral sites is almost as large as for the tetrahedral sites, thereby suggesting similar inter-atomic binding forces for the octahedral and the tetrahedral sites. The saturated magnetic moment and the Mossbauer spectra taken at 4.2 K under the applied field (6 T) show that the spin structure of L $i_{0.5}$F $e_{2.5-{\chi}}$R $h_{\chi}$ $O_4$ is compatible with the collinear Neel Model.

In order to investigate the dependence of the particle size on the cation distribution in the spinel structure, Mossbauer spectra were taken in the presence of an external magnetic field f3r the magnetic nanoparticles prepared by using a microemulsion method. The crystals are found to have a cubic structure. The results show that as the particle sizes decrease, $Fe^{3+}$ ions migrate from the octahedral site to tetrahedral site.
