Mössbauer Spectroscopy
• nuclear technique
• nucleus feels environment
via hyperfine interactions
• recoilfree emission and absorption of gamma
rays by nucleus
• high penetrating power of gamma rays enables
in situ investigations
14.4 keV
Fe57
Mössbauer Effect (1957)
• Resonant absorption
only if nuclei (atoms) are
fixed in a solid
• Recoil taken up by
lattice vibrations
(quantized)
• recoil energy < phonon energy:
then some absorption events
occur without recoil
• f: recoil free fractionno resonant absorption in free atoms
due to the (tiny!) energy loss by recoil
