Magnetic and structural properties of La0.67 Ca0.33 Mn1-x Fex O3 (x=0.0-0.05) powders have been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and X-ray diffraction. A single phase of the polycrystalline perovskite powder has been prepared using the metal-salt routed sol-gel method. The results of X-ray measurements show that there was not appreciable change in the value of the lattice parameter when a small amount of iron was added. However, the results of Mossbauer and VSM measurements demonstrate that the Curie temperature of the perovskite powder (x = 0.05) has descreased from 282 K to 180 K and that the large decrease of the saturation magnetization from 84 emu/g to 40 emu/g at 77 K has been observed as ⁵⁷Fe(x =0.05) was introduced into the compound. Mossbauer spectra of La0.67 Ca0.33 Mn0.95 Fe0.05 O3 powders have been taken at various temperatures ranging from 4.2 K to room temperature. It is observed that the pattern of the spectra were changed from a doublet line to a 6-line as the temperature decreased. Four experimental magnetic hyperfine fields at 4.2 K are found to be 465, 514, 489, and 417 kOe and isomer shifts at 4.2 K are ).37, 0.38, 0.35, and 0.29 mm/s. These isomer shifts indicate that the valence state of Fe ions is ferric (Fe³⁺), which are relative to A-Fe at room temperature. It should be noted that superparamagnetic relaxation begins at 37 K.
