Abstrakt: X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron, and Mössbauer spectroscopy are used to study the ionic and phase compositions of samples of powdered ferrogarnet Y2.5Ce0.5Fe2.5Ga2.5O12 obtained by gel combustion followed by crystallization in vacuum and additional annealing in air at 750°С. According to X-ray photoelectron and Mössbauer spectroscopy data, the iron and cerium cations in the homogeneous ferrogarnet structure are stabilized in the formal oxidation state Fe3+. At the same time, along with Ce3+, the surface of Y2.5Ce0.5Fe2.5Ga2.5O12 particles contains Ce4+ ions. The results obtained can be used to create functional materials for a new generation of magnetooptical devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
