Fe1+xTe, the antiferromagnetic parent compound of the Fe-chalcogenide superconductors, displays separated magnetic (TN) and structural (Ts) transitions with TN > Ts for x > 0.12 [1]. Such behavior, namely the magnetic transition preceeding the structural transition upon cooling, is uncommon for the parent systems of pnictide superconductors. We performed Mössbauer spectroscopy on samples with two representative levels of iron excess: i) Fe1.06Te with simultaneous magnetic and structural transitions at TN = Ts =69 K and ii) Fe1.13Te with separated transitions at TN = 57 K followed by Ts = 46 K. Mössbauer data, analyzed by taking into account two different Fe-sites clearly, display a precursor magnetic state which is only present in Fe1.13Te. Further, a complex magnetic phase has been observed in the temperature range 75 K ≳ T ≳ 40 K in Fe1.13Te. We discuss our Mössbauer results in the context of recently published thermodynamic and neutron scattering data on Fe1+xTe.
