Abstract

Single crystals of Ba(Fe1 − x Mn x )2As2 (x = 0, 0.016, 0.064) have been prepared and studied by 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy in the temperature range from 30 K to room temperature. The Mössbauer spectra show a change in the spectral shape with the change of Mn concentrations. It is found that both the hyperfine field and the magnetic phase transition temperature decrease with the increasing of Mn concentrations.
