Overview
Mössbauer spectroscopy is uniquely able to probe hyperfine interactions by looking at the short-range order of resonant atoms. Materials containing an appropriate isotope as one of their constituent atoms, such as iron or tin, are readily investigated. But even materials that do not contain Mössbauer-active atoms can be investigated if the probe atoms are incorporated in minor quantities (ca. 0.1 at.-%) to act as molecular-level indicators.These 35 papers collected here represent a state-of-the-art description of Mössbauer spectroscopy techniques applied to advanced materials. The topics covered comprise investigations of nanomaterials, nanoparticles, and quasicrystals, artificially structured materials as well as applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy in chemistry, mineralogy and metallurgy. The main aim of is the dissemination of information on research and recent developments of the method in materials science as obtained in leading Mössbauer laboratories.
Synopsis
This proceedings volume surveys the state of the art in Mössbauer spectroscopy and its applications to materials science. The 35 contributions from international researchers are arranged into sections on nanoscale systems, conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy, magnetism, nanocrystalline alloys and metals, synchrotron radiation, minerals, and new developments. They address such topics as the different methods for preparing fine particles, the advantages of using external magnetic fields, and the use of the wavelet transform for Mössbauer spectra fitting.
