✦ Synopsis
The nonstoichiometry of spinel ferrite (Mg x Fe 1؊x ) 3؊ O 4 has been measured as a function of oxygen activity (a O2 ) and Mg content (x) at 1000°C via coulometric titration. For a given Mg content, the nonstoichiometry varies with the oxygen activity as
O2 , indicating metal vacancies at high a O2 and metal interstitials at low a O2 . As Mg content increases from x ؍ 0 to x ؍ 0.29, the defect parameter, [V]°decreases and [I]°increases, respectively, by 2-4 orders of magnitude. This is ascribed to the fact that magnesium ions remain at a fixed valence (Mg 2؉ ) in the spinel. The Mg content dependencies of these defect parameters are discussed in the light of point defect thermodynamics.
