The body-centered-cubic (bcc) phase appears for x≪0.32, while the σ phase is formed for 0.38≤x≤0.44. For 0.32≤x≪0.38 and 0.44≪x≤0.54, the samples are composed of both bcc and σ phases. As the Cr concentration increases, the ferromagnetic fraction, magnetization, and magnitude of the hyperfine field decrease, whereas the magnitude of the isomer shift increases. The Fe and Cr magnetic moments, isomer shift, and hyperfine field of the bcc Fe–Cr phase have been deduced and are discussed consistently in terms of charge and spin distributions, as well as magnetic valence. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. date: 2000 date_type: published full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Applied Physics volume: 88 number: 8 pagerange: 4778-4782 refereed: TRUE citation: Duc, N.H. and Fnidiki, A. and Teillet, J. and Youssef, J.Ben and Le Gall, H.
