  • comment on structural and mossbauer study of the Brownmillerite oxides lasrmn2 xfexo5 0 x 0 5
    Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2014
    Co-Authors: Josie E. Auckett, Chris D. Ling
    Abstract:

    Abstract Mohamed et al. recently reported in this Journal on the synthesis and characterisation of a series of oxides described as “LaSrMn 2− x Fe x O 5 ”. On the basis of Rietveld refinements against powder X-ray diffraction data, the authors stated that all synthesised members of the series crystallised in the Brownmillerite structure with Pnma symmetry. However, the diffraction patterns presented in that paper clearly correspond to oxidised perovskite phases with small orthorhombic distortions, rather than Brownmillerites. This is consistent with the authors’ failure to report having performed any reaction steps under reducing conditions, as is normally required to obtain the mixed +2/+3 oxidation state of Mn and Fe in the expected Brownmillerites. The materials synthesised under the reported conditions were most likely to have been oxidised pseudo-cubic perovskites LaSrMn 2− x Fe x O 6− δ ( δ  ≪ 1), which is consistent with their reported X-ray diffraction data. The interpretation of Mossbauer data in the original paper is therefore flawed.

  • Combined Experimental and Computational Study of Oxide Ion Conduction Dynamics in Sr2Fe2O5 Brownmillerite
    Chemistry of Materials, 2013
    Co-Authors: Josie E. Auckett, Andrew J. Studer, Eric Pellegrini, Jacques Ollivier, Mark R. Johnson, Helmut Schober, Wojciech Miiller, Chris D. Ling
    Abstract:

    We report a detailed study of the dynamics of oxide ionic conduction in Brownmillerite-type Sr2Fe2O5, including lattice anisotropy, based on neutron scattering studies of a large (partially twinned...

  • Magnetic structure of Sr2Fe2O5 Brownmillerite by single-crystal Mössbauer spectroscopy
    Journal of Solid State Chemistry, 2013
    Co-Authors: João C. Waerenborgh, Josie E. Auckett, Chris D. Ling, Ekaterina V. Tsipis, Vladislav V. Kharton
    Abstract:

    In order to determine orientation of the Fe3+ magnetic moments and electric field gradient (efg) axes in the Brownmillerite-type strontium ferrite structure for both iron sublattices where the efg tensor is not axially symmetric, the Mossbauer spectra of powdered and oriented single-crystal Sr2Fe2O5 were analyzed by solving the complete Hamiltonian for hyperfine interactions in the excited and ground states of the 57Fe nuclei. The magnetic moments of both octahedrally and tetrahedrally coordinated iron cations lie on the ac-plane of the orthorhombic unit cell and are parallel to the shortest c-axis, whilst the main efg axes are parallel to the longest crystallographic axis, b. This orientation is similar to that in Ca2Fe2O5, in spite of the structural differences of strontium and calcium ferrite Brownmillerites at low temperatures.
