Popis: | The magnetostriction of the NiFeCrO4 ferrite is investigated for the first time. It is found that the frustration of magnetic coupling occurs only in the B sublattice of the NiFeCrO4 ferrite, whereas the A sublattice has a usual magnetic structure. The inference is made that the frustration of magnetic coupling in the B sublattice is caused not only by the negative direct BB exchange interaction Cr B 3+ -Cr B 3+ but also by the positive indirect AB exchange interaction Fe A 3+ -O2−-Cr B 3+ . Reasoning from the experimental data and an analysis of the exchange interactions in the NiFeCrO4 ferrite sample, it is demonstrated for the first time that the magnetic moments of Fe A 3+ ions in this ferrite deviate from collinearity. It is established that, at low temperatures, the B sublattice of the NiFeCrO4 ferrite is responsible for the total magnetic moment n 0exp. |
