In this study, we analyzed the volcanic rock and scoria samples taken from special sites of Jeju island in two ways at the room temperature. One is the analysis of the chemical composition using X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, the other is the analysis of minerals in the samples, oxidized iron's genus, valence state and magnetic properties using X-ray diffractometry and Mossbauer spectroscopy. We believe that the volcanic rock and scoria samples are chiefly made of silicate minerals, like SiO$_2$, and they also have olivine, pyroxene, ilmenite, hematite and magnetite. The major Fe fractions of the volcanic rock samples are 2+ charge state and those of the scoria samples are 3+ charge state.

M-type hexagonal BaF $e_{12-2x}$ $Co_{x}$ $Ti_{x}$ $O_{19}$ (0$\leq$x$\leq$1.0) ferrite powders prepared by a sol-gel method. The crystallographic and magnetic properties were characterized with a x-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal analysis (DIA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The result of XRD measurements show that the a and c lattice parameters increase with increasing x from $\alpha$=5.882 and c=23.215 $\AA$ for $\chi$=0.0, to $\alpha$=5.895 and c=23.295 $\AA$ for $\chi$=1.0. From the Mossbauer results, the $Co^{2+}$- $Ti^{4+}$ site occupancies have been affected the changes in the magnetization and in the coercivity. The Curie temperature linearly decreases with increasing $Co^{2+}$- $Ti^{4+}$ concentration x.

Al$\^$3+/ substituted garnet Y$_3$Fe$\_$5-x/Al$\_$x/O$\_$12/ (x=0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0) was fabricated by sol-gel method. The crystallographic and magnetic properties of Y$_3$Fe$\_$5-x/Al$\_$x/O$\_$12/ have been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and vibrating samples magnetometer (VSM). The crystal structure of Y$_3$Fe$\_$5/O$\_$12/ is found to be a cubic with the lattice constant a$\_$0/= 12.381$\pm$0.005 $\AA$. The lattice constants a$\_$0/ decreases linearly from 12.381 to 12.304 A as the Al concentration (x) increases from x=0.0 to 1.0. Mossbauer spectra of measured at Y$_3$Fe$\_$5-x/A1$\_$x/O$\_$12/ various absorber temperatures of 13 to 600 K. Mossbauer spectrum for x = 0.0 is consist of well resolved two sets of six line patterns. While with increasing Al concentration outer sextet patters, which is originating from octahedral sites, broadens widely. These phenomena are interpreted in terms of random probability distributions of Fe$\^$3+/ and Al$\^$3+/ in tetrahedral site.

A series of samples of solid solutions in the $Sr_xEu_{1-x}FeO_{3-y}(0.00{\leq}x{\leq}1.00)$ system has been prepared at $1200^{\circ}C$ under an atmospheric air pressure. The structures of solid solutions are studied by X-ray diffraction, thermal, Mohr salt, and Mossbauer spectroscopic analyses. Their physical properties are also discussed with the electrical conductivities. X-ray diffraction data for the compositions of x = 0.00, 0.25, and 1.00 are assigned to the orthorhombic and the compositions of x = 0.50 and 0.75 to the cubic systems. The lattice volume reduced to cubic cell increases with the x value. The mole ratio of $Fe^{4+}$ iometric chemical formulas of the system are formulated from the x, $\tau$, and y values. The mixed valency state of Fe ions, the oxygen coordination, and covalent bond character are discussed with the Mossbauer spectroscopic data. The activation enegy of the electrical conductivities depends on the $\tau$ value in the temperature range of -$100^{\circ}C$ to $600\circC$ under the air pressure. The Mossbauer spectrum and electrical conductivity of the solid solutions are discussed with nonstoichiometric chemical compositions.

Ba-ferrite thin films were prepared on Si substrate with ${\alpha}$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ underlayer by a pulsed laser deposition system and characterized by X-ray, SEM, Mossbauer spectroscopy and VSM. The appropriate conditions of pulsation in ${\alpha}$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ and Ba-ferrite were the oxygen pressure of 0.1 Torr at a substrate temperature of 400$^{\circ}C$. Ba-ferrite crystals had the forms of ellipsoidal or needle and the grains shaped the more lumps with increasing the film thickness. Mossbauer spectroscopy assured that the direction of atomic spin in Fe ion was not random but had the tendency of arrangement normal to the substrate. The coercive force and squareness of hysteresis were larger in normal than in plane to the substrate but, the magnetic saturation moment was contrary to them. The spin arrangement was strongly affected by ${\alpha}$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ underlayer and the high coercive force and squareness were influenced by this. The crystal structure was conformed to be a Magntoplumbite symmetry with the hexagonal unit cell and the lattice constant of a increased with increasing film thickness, while c decreased

CoCr$_{x}$ Fe$_{2-x}$O$_4$(0.0$\leq$x$\leq$1.0) ferrites have been fabricated by sol-gel method. The crystallographic and magnetic properties of the samples were investigated by means of x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscophy, Mossbauer spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. The structure of all the samples is cubic spinel type and the lattice constant decrease with increasing Cr content. The substituted Cr ions were located only in the B-site. The particle size also decreases with increasing Cr content. The Mossbauer spectra consist of two sextets due to Fe$^{3+}$ions at A- and B sites for 0.0$\leq$x$\leq$0.6, while, a paramagnetic doublet appears for 0.8$\leq$x$\leq$1.0. The magnetic hyperfine field decreases with increasing Cr content. The relaxation spectra was shown at 0.8$\leq$x$\leq$1.0 in CoCr$_{x}$ Fe$_{2-x}$O$_4$. The coercivity decreases drastically, while, the saturation magnetization decreases linearly with increasing x.ing x.

Sr substituted materials for some barium in M-type barium ferrite powder and Co-Ti substituted Sr-Ba hexagonal ferrite powder were prepared by citrate sol-gel method and 2 MOE sol-gel method these hexaferrite particles were reduced for 1hr in the hydrogen gas. The reduction temperatures were varied in the range of 250 $^{\circ}C$ to 500 $^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction patterns were measured using diffractometer with Cu $K_{\Alhpa}$ radiation. Mossbauer absorption spectra were measured with a constant acceleration spectrometer. We have focused on studying the origin of increasing $M_s$ by M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. Ferrite particles which were sintered at 105$0^{\circ}C$ were found to be typical magnetoplumbite structure and single phase. XRD patterns with varying the reduction temperatures in $Sr_{0.5}Ba_{0.5}Fe_{10}O_{19}$ indicates ferrites particles become composite hexaferrites containing $\alpha$-Fe at T_{red}=350 \;$^{\circ}C$$. On the otherhand, it was found that $Co^{2+}$ ions and $Ti^{4+}$ ions in $Sr_{0.7}Ba_{0.3}Fe_{10}CoTiO_{19}$ prevent from changing $Fe^{3+}$ ions to $\alpha$-Fe during the $H_2$ reduction. Comparing Mossbauer results with XRD results, we have determined most of $\alpha$-Fe are reduced from $4f_{vi}$ sites and 12k sites of $Fe^{3+}$ ions. These $\alpha$-Fe phase bring the induced anisotropy and increase saturation magnetization $M_s$.TEX>.

The magnetic states of nonstoichiometric substituted ferrite Fe$_{}1.429$(Al$_{4-x}$ Ga$_{x}$)$_{0.286}$ Si$_{0.143}$ /O$_4$ system have been investigated using Mossbauer spectroscopy and SQUID. The Mossbauer spectra at room temperature show well-defined two Zeeman patterns for x=0.2, superpositions of two Zeeman patterns and a doublet for x=0.4. The doublet peak seems to be originated from the superparamagnetic clusters. The system shows significant departures from the Neel's collinear model and seems to be the diluted ferrites. The Mossbauer spectra below R.T show various and complicated patterns, which can be explained by freezing of the superparamagnetic clusters. On cooling, magnetic states of the system may be various and multicritical, Resulting from SQUID measurements, there was an unexpected dip in magnetization curves below 50K. It was interpreted as an effect of spin canting including spin freezing or collective spin behavior.

Acicular Fe-Co alloy particles are one of the candidates for high-density magnetic recording media. We examined the effects of Co additions on the magnetic properties of Fe-Co alloy particles by using M$\'{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy, TEM, and X-ray diffraction. Acicular $Fe_n$Co (n=5, 4, 3, 2) alloy particles coated with silica, were prepared by a chemical coprecipitation method and subsequent H $_2$ reduction. The crystal structure was found to be cubic in all n ranges. The lattice constant $a_0$ decreases with increasing Co contents. Analysis of $^{57}Fe$ M\'{o}$ssbauer effect data in terms of the local configurations of Co atoms has permitted the influence of magnetic hyperfine interactions to be monitored.

Fe compounds of scoria samples distributed in the western seaside area of Jeju island were investigated by means of X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRD), X-ray diffractometry (XRF) and $^{57}Fe$ Mossbauer spectroscopy. The samples were prepared from five parasite volcanos. We found that the samples were a typical basalt from the contents ratio of $SiO_2,\;Al_2O_3$ and Fe, and that they were silicate minerals. Underwater volcanoes scoria samples are shown only doublets in Mossbauer spectra and others scoria samples are shown sextets due to hematite and magnetite. And the balence state of Fe in the underwater volcanoes scoria samples are chiefly 2+ charge state with a little of the 2+ charge state. But the balence state of Fe in the others scoria samples are chiefly 3+ charge state.
