Abstract: | We present the results of magnetic studies and Mössbauer effect measurements on 20Fe2O380[3B2O3(1?x)PbOxAuOv] glasses with AuOv = CaO, As2O3 or GeO2. The fraction r of ferrous ions is not dependent on CaO content, while in case of glasses with As2O3 and GeO2 a linear variation is observed. The increase of the number of ferric ions is proportional to the difference between the valences of A ions and that of lead as well as on AuOv content. The magnetic measurements show that the reciprocal susceptibility for T ? 50 K has a nonlinear variation, typical for systems with random distribution of exchange interactions. At T > 50 K, a Curie-Weiss behaviour is evidenced. The Curie constants show a composition dependence similar to that of r values. Finally, the influence of the glass matrix composition on the iron valence states is discussed. |
