SrFe1−xCoxO3−δ(0 ≤x≤ 1, δ ≤ 0.06) of the cubic perovskite type was prepared by treating mixtures of grossly oxygen-deficient samples obtained at ambient pressure with an oxidizer, KClO4, at 6 GPa and 873 K. The lattice parameters were determined by X-ray diffraction measurements and their magnetic properties were characterized by measurements of magnetization and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The ferromagnetic Curie temperature has been found to be raised above 300 K for 0.4 ≤x≤ 0.9 (340 K atx= 0.6) by the high pressure treatment, and the composition dependence of saturation magnetization forx≥ 0.4 is consistent with a simple picture in which Fe4+ions with 4 μBand Co4+ions with 1.8 μBalign their moments ferromagnetically. The saturation magnetic hyperfine field, which is 330 kOe for SrFeO3, decreases quickly at first (x≤ 0.15) and then slowly to about 290 ∼ 300 kOe, or exponentially, as Co content increases, suggesting that the Co substitution tends to delocalize electrons of Fe parentage in a broadened σ* band. SrFeO3, an antiferromagnet with a relatively lowTNof 134 K, and Sr2FeCoO6, a ferromagnet with a highTCof 340 K, seem to represent the two electronic phases switched from one to the other atx= 0.1 ∼ 0.15.
