In this study, Fe lattice sites and charge states in In0:10Ga0:90N are investigated by emission Mössbauer spectroscopy following 57Mnþ implantation at ISOLDE, CERN. Room temperature measurements confirmed the presence of both Fe2þ and Fe3þ ions. The iron atoms with a 2+ charge state occupied the In/Ga site near a nitrogen vacancy. Paramagnetic Fe3þ signatures were evident on the outer regions of the spectra, akin to metal oxides, GaN, and AlN. Slow spin–lattice relaxation characteristics of high-spin ferric iron were observed, following T2 dependence. However, the relaxation rates in In0:10Ga0:90N are significantly slower than those in GaN. This is attributed to the weaker spin–lattice coupling, modified local symmetry, and crystal field splitting related to alloy disorder, softening the lattice. The ability to manipulate the dopant’s spin dynamics via alloying offers promising pathways for controlling spin coherence in InGaN-based spintronics and quantum devices.The authors thank the financial support provided by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space (BMFTR), through Grant Nos. 05K22PGA, 05K25PGA, and 05K22PGB, alongside support from the ISOLDE collaboration.
