Abstrakt: Mössbauer spectra of (La1-xSnx)2(Mn0.985Fe0.015)2Oy ( x=0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) from room temperature to 4.2 K have been studied; in addition X ray diffraction patterns at room temperature have been obtained. The results show that the phase compositions of (La1-xSnx)2(Mn0.985Fe0.015)2Oy are strongly dependent on the Sn concentrations and on the heat treatment. The manganites with x=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 after annealing in air at 1200°C appear to consist of two phases, ABO3 and A2B2O7. Their Mössbauer spectra are paramagnetic doublets at room temperature that become sextets at T ∼ 230 K and ∼ 60 K. The ABO3 phase appears to be the source of the CMR in manganite (La0.7Sn0.3)2(Mn0.985Fe0.015)2Oy [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
