Abstract
Synthesis of the xFe2O3 (1-x)Bi2O3 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) (A1-A5: x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) glasses was done via nitrate-citrate gel route. Glassy phase is ascertained by XRD studies. Magnetic susceptibility results in the range 4.2-400 K show ferromagnetic nature with exchange integrals ~60 μ eV in the glasses. The electron paramagnetic resonance in the range 4.2-363 K shows g = 2.0 and g = 4.3 which are due to octahedral symmetry with tetragonal distortion and tetrahedral [FeO4/2]2- symmetry with rhombic distortion, respectively of Fe3+ (3d5) ions.
