The Mössbauer spectra were studied for the antiferroelectric compound PbZrO3 and for the closely related ferroelectric PbTi0.2Zr0.8O3. In both cases, a substitution of 5-mol% BiFeO3 was made to permit the Mössbauer measurements. Little difference was found in the isomer shift in these compounds, whether they were in the ferroelectric, antiferroelectric, or cubic state, indicating that the bonding character is not affected by the transitions among the states. There was a pronounced and approximately equivalent dip in the recoil-free fraction at the Curie points of both the antiferroelectric and ferroelectric materials, associated with …

The Mössbauer spectra of the ferroelectric solid solutions (BiFeO3)x(PbTiO)1-x have been studied as a function of temperature, mainly between room temperature and 600°C, using 57Fe in the solutions as an absorber. The quadrupole splitting increased and the isomer shift decreased between x = 0.05 and x = 0.70, a range in which the solutions are tetragonal and paramagnetic, and in which the unit cell volume increases with increasing x. The isomer shift, in particular, was primarily determined by the unit cell volume. Data are presented on the internal magnetic field of the antiferromagnetic …
