Abstract
Abstraet. The acoustic losses in single crystals of manganese ferrites were studied in the temperature range from 180 to 650 K by applying longitudinal vibrations of 150 kHz. Loss peaks were observed at 232 and 537 K with activation energies of 0.3 and 0.8 eV, respectively. The first loss peak at 232 K is regarded as a stress-induced relaxation of electrons between two and three-valent ions. The second peak at 537 K is ascribed to the exchange motion of iron cations and their vacancies on octahedral sites. Heat treatments at 300 and 600°C affect the oxygen stoichiometry and distribution of cations between octahedral and tetrahedral sites which results in the changes of the loss peaks magnitudes.
