Fe compounds of scoria samples distributed in Songdang-ri positioning north-eastern area of Jeju island were investigated by means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and $^{57}Fe$ M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. The samples were prepared from six parasite. We found that the samples were composed of a typical olivine, pyroxene, ilmenite, $SiO_2$, anorite and anorthoclase, M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectrum of the most scoria samples are shown doublets and sextets of olivine, doublets of pyroxene, ilmenite and silicate minerals. And the valence states of Fe ion of the scoria samples in this area are chiefly 3+ charge state and a little 2+ charge state.

Crystallographic and magnetic properties of the Mn-doped orthoferrite LaFe$_{1-x}$Mn$_{x}$ O$_3$(0.0$\leq$x$\leq$O.4) system have been investigated by means of x-ray diffractometry, M ssbauer spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer and super-conducting quantum interference device. The structure of the system was found to be orthorhombic distorted perovskite structure. At room temperature, the M ssbauer spectra for x=0.0 consists of one Zeeman sextets from Fe$^{3+}$ ions at octahedral sites. The M ssbauer spectra of two Zeeman sextets (x$\leq$0.1) change one Zeeman sextets and a paramagnetic doublet (x=0.4). The saturation magnetization increases but the coercivity decreases with increasing x in LaFe$_{1-x}$Mn$_{x}$ O$_3$.

The crystallographic properties of the polycrystalline materials $Fe_{1+X}Eu_{1-X}O_{3}$(X = -0.06, 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) have been studied by the methods of X-ray diffraction and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The results showed that the samples with the composition range of $0.2{\leq}x{\leq}0.3$ had the garnet crystal phase, while those with $-0.06{\leq}x{\leq}0.0$ had the orthoferrite phase. However, with the tendency for the orthoferrite phase to convert into the trigonal phase via garnet phase as increasing the composition x, the orthoferrite-garnet and garnet-trigonal phase coexisted dominantly in the range of 0.0 < x < 0.2 and $0.4{\geq}x$, respectively. The analyzed results of $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectrum indicated existence of some vacancies in the d-site of garnet phase, which can be related to the change of intensity in X-ray diffraction patterns.

The crystallographic and magnetic properties of gallium-substituted cobalt ferrite ($CoGa_xFe_{2-x}O_4$) were investigated. The new material was synthesized using conventional ceramic methods, with gallium substituted for ferrite in the range of x = 0.0 to 1.0, in steps of 0.2. X-ray diffraction and M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy were used to confirm the presence of crystallized particles in the $CoGa_xFe_{2-x}O_4$ ferrite powders. All of the samples exhibited a single phase with a spinel structure, and the lattice parameters decreased as the gallium content increased. The particle size of the samples also decreased as gallium increased. For $x{\leq}0.4$, the M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of $CoGa_xFe_{2-x}O_4$ could be fitted with two Zeeman sextets, which are the typical spinel ferrite spectra of $Fe^{3+}$ with A- and B-sites. However, for $x{\geq}0.6$, the M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra could be fitted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet. The variation in the M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer parameters and the absorption area ratio indicated a cation distribution of $(Co_{0.2-0.2x}Ga_xFe_{0.8-0.6x})[Co_{0.8+0.2x}Fe_{1.2-0.4x}]O_4$, and the magnetic behavior of the samples suggested that the increase in gallium content led to a decrease in the saturation magnetization and in the coercivity.

Ba-Ferrite thin films were prepared on $A1_2O_3$ substrate by a pulsed laser deposition system and characterized by SEM, $M\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy and VSM. The appropriate conditions of pulsation in Ba-ferrite was the oxygen pressure of 0.1 Torr at a substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ and the thickness was variable with the deposition time. Ba-ferrite crystals had the forms of hexagonal plate in the 5 minute deposited film and the needle grains coexisted with the increasing film thickness. $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy assured that the direction of atomic spin in Fe ion tends to normal to the substrate in the hexagonal plate. The VSM curves have the two types hysteresis of hexagonal and needle phase.

$Y_{3-x}R_xFe_5O_{12}$ (R = La, Nd, and Gd) powder were fabricated using a sol-gel pyrolysis method. Their magnetic properties and crystalline structures were investigated using x-ray diffraction (XRD), a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ Spectrometer. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra for the powders were taken at various temperatures ranging from 12 K to Curie temperature (Tc). The isomer shifts indicated that the valence states of Fe ions for the 16(a) and 24(d) sites have a ferric character. The saturation magnetization (Ms) increases from 32 to 34 (emu/g) for the YIG, and Nd-YIG, respectively. However, Ms decreases to 27 (emu/g) at Gd-YIG.

To determine whether there is an ionic substitution of Ni, Co, Mn, and Al for Fe in synthetic goethites these materials have been studied by M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy at various temperatures ranging from 77 to 400 K. It is found that the presence of substituting elements in magnetically ordered structure of crystals may change the shape of M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of these caterials. The approximate distribution function of the effective magnetic field in the Fe nucleus p(Hn) is obtained from the M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra. It is noted that the mean value of p(Hn) and its integral width can be taken as a measure of substitution in goethites.

The microscopic physical properties of nonstoichiometric garnet EuxFe2-xO3 (x=0.8 and 0.7) have been studied by the methods of X-ray diffraction at room temperature and M ssbauer spectroscopy within the temeperature range of 12-560 K. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples show coexistence of dominant garnet and a small portion of unknown crystal phase. But the M ssbauer spectra for the sample of EF08 and EF07 near N el temperature determined to be equally 549$\pm$5K show that there are no any other extra crystal phases within the experimental error. The results of which the temperature dependence of M ssbauer parameters was anlyzed by the spin-wave theory and Debye model are in good agreement with the fact that the sample of EF08 has some vacancies at a-and/or d-sites.

Structural and magnetic properties of polycrystalline $CaFe_2O_4$ prepared by the solid state reaction method were studied using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The structure of $CaFe_2O_4$ belongs to an orthorhombic system (space group: Pnma) with the lattice parameters $a=9.2373\;{\AA}$, $b=3.0237\;{\AA}$, and $c=10.7124\;{\AA}$. Results of structural refinement indicate, however, that there are two slightly different iron sites in the sample. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectrum at 4.2 K shows a hyperfine sextet with a hyperfine magnetic field and an isomer shift of 47.3 T and 0.36 mm/s, respectively. An examination of the spectrum revealed that the line widths of the spectral lines were not uniform. The degree of asymmetric line broadening decreases with increasing temperature, suggesting that the difference in the degree of crystalline distortions between two $FeO_6$ octahedra is eliminated as the temperature rises.

Fe compounds in scoria as distributed in the south-western area of Jeju Island were investigated using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and $^{57}Fe$ $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The samples were prepared from four parasite volcanoes. It was found that these samples are typical basalt comprised of $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, Fe, and silicate minerals. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra showed doublets for olivine, pyroxene, and ilmenite as well as sextets for hematite and magnetite. The valence state of Fe is chiefly a 3+ charge state with a slight 2+ charge state. It is expected that these results will add to the body of information related to the formation mechanisms of Jeju Island.
