- Description
- Theoretical and experimental Mössbauer spectroscopy studies have been made concerning charge and spin densities and magnetic hyperfine fields <math>(H_{hf})\,\!</math> in iron-substituted superconducting oxides. Calculations were carried out in the self-consistent-field embedded cluster model using local density theory (SCF-X<math> \alpha\,\!</math>) with a variational atomic orbital basis. Spectral densities and changes in charge and spin density were monitored around neighboring Cu sites, as well as Fe impurity site, in <math>La_2Cu_{1-x}Fe_x0_y\,\!</math> and <math>YBa_2Cu_{3-x}Fe_x0_{7-y}\,\!</math> compounds. Mössbauer isomer shifts (IS), quadrupole splittings (QS) and <math>H_{hf}\,\!</math> are obtained by fitting multiline models to the observed spectra and are compared with SCF-X<math>\alpha\,\!</math> results for specific lattice sites. The influence of oxygen vacancies and partial oxygen disorder is modelled and compared with the experimental data on variable oxygen content and disorder.
