As. Kamzin et al., DIAGNOSTICS OF THE SURFACE AND NEAR-SURFACE REGION OF BARIUM HEXAFERRITE MONOCRYSTALS, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 161, 1996, pp. 139-142
By means of simultaneous gamma-ray, X-ray and electron Mossbauer spect
roscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy a diagnostic study of the
surface and near-surface region of a uniaxial ferrimagnetic monocryst
al of BaO . 6Fe(2)O(3) was carried out. The existence of a structurall
y and therefore magnetically perturbed layer with a thickness of at le
ast an order of magnitude less than that of classical antiferromagnets
was found.
