Ferrimagnetic properties, large saturation magnetization (Ms) and low temperature coercivity (Hc) was observed in nonstoichiometric Fe1−xO films. This unusual behavior was attributed to the existence of spinel type defect clusters coherently embedded in the FeO matrix. A model, which explains the Fe1−xO properties and predicts a linear dependence between Ms and the Fe1−xO lattice parameter a with the Fe3O4 data falling on the same line, is proposed. The experimental Ms vs a curve is in excellent agreement with the theoretical prediction, which indicates the existence of a fundamental relation between FeO, Fe1−xO, and Fe3O4.
