Abstract

We report a study of the spin moment in Fe3O4 as a function of temperature using spin-dependent Compton scattering. Magnetic Compton profiles and spin moment values were obtained either side of the Verwey transition for applied magnetic fields of 2.5 and 7 T. The orbital moments, determined by comparison with bulk magnetometry, are almost fully quenched. No evidence of any anomalies in the spin or orbital moments at the Verwey transition was observed. The magnetic Compton profiles have the characteristic shape for Fe 3d electrons at all temperatures with no changes in the degree of anisotropy across the Verwey transition. Our data are consistent with the highly spin-polarized electronic structure expected for bulk Fe3O4.
