Аннотация:Mössbauer and magnetic studies of Ca-doped lanthanum manganites La1–xCaxMn0.98Fe0.02O3+δ (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.20) of a nonstoichiometric composition are performed. An increase in the Ca concentration and a decrease in the interstitial oxygen quantity results in a decreasing electric-field gradient in the region of the Fe atomic nucleus due to the spatial rearrangement of the charge of surrounding atoms. The Mössbauer spectra of all studied lanthanum-manganite samples demonstrate a relaxation character at
low temperatures, which can be associated with the presence of small-sized magnetic clusters. This
finding correlates with the results of magnetic investigations. The values of the coercive force,
saturation magnetization, and blocking temperature are determined.
