%0 Journal Article %T M£¿ssbauer Spectroscopy of Triphylite (LiFePO4) at Low Temperatures %J Condensed Matter | An Open Access Journal from MDPI %D 2019 %R https://doi.org/10.3390/condmat4040086 %X Low temperature magnetic ordering in the LiFePO 4 compound is investigated experimentally using M£¿ssbauer spectroscopy and theoretically via first principles calculations. The evaluation of experiment carried out on a powder sample is compatible with an antiferromagnetic order of Fe ion magnetic moments. When an external magnetic field is applied, Fe magnetic moments start to deviate slightly from the [010] easy magnetization direction. These findings are confirmed by means of first principles calculations, which also suggest the magnitude of single ion magnetic anisotropy and orbital and spin-dipolar contributions to the magnetic hyperfine field, which is eventually in a good agreement with the experiment. Diffraction and magnetic measurements complement the study. View Full-Tex %U https://www.mdpi.com/2410-3896/4/4/86
