abstract = {A spin glass state is observed in the double perovskite
oxide Sr2FeCoO6 prepared through sol-gel technique. Initial
structural studies using x rays reveal that the compound
crystallizes in tetragonal I4/m structure with lattice
parameters, a = 5.4609(2) angstrom and c = 7.7113(7)
angstrom. The temperature dependent powder x ray diffraction
data reveal no structural phase transition in the
temperature range 10-300 K. However, the unit cell volume
shows an anomaly coinciding with the magnetic transition
temperature thereby suggesting a close connection between
lattice and magnetism. Neutron diffraction studies and
subsequent bond valence sums analysis show that in
Sr2FeCoO6, the B site is randomly occupied by Fe and Co in
the mixed valence states of Fe3+ /Fe4+ and Co3+/Co4+. The
random occupancy and mixed valence sets the stage for
inhomogeneous magnetic exchange interactions and in turn,
for the spin glass state in this double perovskite, which is
observed as an irreversibility in temperature dependent dc
magnetization at T-f similar to 75 K. Dynamical scaling
analysis of chi'(T) yields a critical temperature T-ct =
75.14(8) K and an exponent zv = 6.2(2) typical for spin
glasses. The signature of presence of mixed magnetic
interactions is obtained from the thermal hysteresis in
magnetization of Sr2FeCoO6. Combining the neutron and
magnetization results of Sr2FeCoO6, we deduce that Fe is in
low spin state while Co is in both low spin and intermediate
spin states. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.
