Dynamic Low-Spin—High-Spin Transition of Fe2+ in 1TFexTa1xS2(x<~13)

Abstract
1TFexTa1xS2 shows unusual behavior in the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility and Fe57 Mössbauer isomer shift, as a result of a low spin (A1g1) to high spin (T2g5) transition of Fe2+. The fluctuation rate A1g1T2g5 is faster than 107 sec1.
