Mössbauer Spectroscopy with Ni61

  • Conference paper
Mössbauer Effect Methodology

Abstract

The practical application of Mössbauer spectroscopy to the study of nickel compounds has been retarded by two factors: (1) late discovery of a suitable, single-line source and (2) the short half-lives of both possible parent isotopes of Ni61. A suitable source of 15% chromium in nickel is activated by 1 hr of exposure to 100-MeV bremsstrahlung in the NBS linear electron accelerator. The source has a fractional effect of about 0.1 at 77°K and yields an experimental line width of 0.097 ± 0.004 cm/sec when extrapolated to zero thickness in source and absorber.
