Abstract
Mössbauer measurements (4.2≤T≤298°K) indicate the presence of entropic disordering in (Ga0.43+Fe0.63+Alp3+) [Ni2+Cr1−y3+Aly−p3+Fep3+]O4 and a linear increase in p with y between 0(y=0) and 0.11(y=1). Entropic spins are located only on A-sites indicating relatively large A-sublattice frustration. Weak A-B coupling could explain this separate sublattice behaviour. Magneton number, alongwith Mössbauer p values, shows B-site canting which increases with y revealing weakness of A-B interaction. Present system can be called a "frustrated ferrimagnet" or "entropie ferrimagnet" where ferrimagnetic and frustrated (entropie) spins are coexisting.
