Resumen:
Phase formation in the Mn doped b-FeSi2 system (Fe1‑xMnxSi2, with 0.00 £ x£ 0.24) was studied using X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Samples were prepared by the simultaneous mill of pure Si, Mn and Fe under Ar atmosphere followed by an annealing at 1123 K during 4 h at 1× 10−7 Torr.  After milling, an admixture of b-FeSi2, a-FeSi2 and e-FeSi phases was present while a-FeSi2 disappeared after annealing, resulting b-FeSi2 the main phase.  Depending on Mn concentration, small amounts of e-FeSi and Si segregation were also observed. A preferential substitution of Fe atoms by Mn ones in the FeII site of the b-FeSi2 regular lattice was inferred from the Mössbauer results.
