Abstract
Faraday and Magnetic Circular Dichroism measurements in the region of near infrared are performed in the temperature range 4 < T < 300 K on Fe - Al2O3 granular films. The intensities of the observed transitions, due to Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions, remain constant below characteristic temperatures depending on iron concentration and on the average particle's dimensions.
