Electronic Structure of Iron Substituted Lithium Intercalated TaS2
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
We have used the 57Fe Mössbauer effect to study the electronic spin configuration of Fe substituted in the layer compound LixTal-yFeyS2(0≤x≤l;0≤y≤0.1). The Mössbauer effect results show that the Fe is localized and in Fe2+ valence state but the electronic configuration depends on the lithium concentration. At room temperature the isomer shift of Fe2+ increases from 0.56 mm/s for x = 0 (no Li) to 0.77 mm/s for x = .86 (at y = 0.05). The isomer shift results reflect the changes in the electronic configuration of the host from Ta4+(5d1) to Ta3+(5d2) and an increase in ionicity as the lithium content increases from 0 to 1.
