Abstract
Iron ions were used as probes to explore the structural and magnetic proper ties of 70TeO(2). 25B(2)O(3). 5SrF(2) vitreous matrix. The distribution of Fe3+ ions on different structural aggregates was revealed by means of EPR, as depending on Fe2O3 concentration. Strongly distorted octahedral sites we re detected for the isolated paramagnetic ions, and also clusters of Fe ion s especially at high Fe2O3 content of samples. Magnetic susceptibility meas urements evidenced both dipole-dipole and superexchange type interactions i nvolving iron ions. Mixed valence states of iron ions were also detected.
