Abstract

The 67.03-keV state of Ge73 has been populated by Coulomb excitation and the recoiling excited nuclei implanted into Cr, Fe, and Cu backings. Nuclear and solid-state properties of Ge73 have been determined by studying the de-excitation γ rays by Mössbauer techniques. The present measurements yield a lifetime of (2.68±0.14)×109 sec, and favor a spin of 72 for the 67.03-keV excited state. The measured isomer shift between pure germanium and GeO2 is + 1.0±0.1 mm/sec, and electron densities calculated for these two cases imply that the radius of the excited state is larger than that of the ground state, and ΔRR=+0.9×103 in reasonable agreement with calculations based on the pairing-plus-quadrupole model. To calculate the recoilless fraction f of an impurity atom, a simple model with spring forces between nearest neighbors is introduced. In each case the effective spring constant for the impurity, as derived from the observed f value, is weaker than that of the host lattice. A remarkable difference was found between f values for tetragonal and hexagonal GeO2, namely f(tetr)5f(hex).
