Popis: postprint The (NH4)0.80Li0.20[Fe(AsO4)F] compound has been synthesized under mild hydrothermal conditions. The compound crystallize in the orthorhombic Pna21 space group, with cell parameters a= 13.352(9), b= 6.7049(9), c= 10.943(2) Å and Z = 8. The compound belongs to the KTiO(PO4) structure type, with chains alternating FeO4F2 octahedra and AsO4 tetrahedra, respectively, running along the “a” and “b” crystallographic axes. The diffuse reflectance spectrum in the visible region shows the forbidden electronic transitions characteristic of the Fe(III) d5-high spin cation in slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The Mössbauer spectrum at room temperature is characteristic of iron (III) cations. The ESR spectra, carried out from room temperature to 20.0 K, remain isotropic with variation in temperature; the g-value being 1.99(1). Magnetic measurements indicate the predominance of strong antiferromagnetic interactions. Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, MICINN: MAT-2010-15375. Gobierno Vasco: IT-177.07
