Abstract
Langmuir-Blodgett multilayers of ferric arachidate (abbreviated: FeA) on silicon wafers have been investigated by means of conversion electron Mossbauer spectroscopy (CEMS) and absorption Mossbauer spectroscopy at different temperatures between room temperature and 4.2 K, without and with external magnetic fields up to 5 T. The films show a quasicrystalline structure with ac-axis orientation perpendicular to the plane and a random distribution of orientations in the plane of the films. All Mossbauer spectra show Fe3+. At low temperatures, antiferromagnetic ordering has been observed. The lines in both the room temperature and the low-temperature spectra are significantly broadened, which is due to a distribution of electric field gradients and hyperfine fields. The reason for this is a slightly disordered iron environment. The orientation and the distribution function of the internal magnetic fields have been determined.
