The magnetic anisotropy constant K 1 originating from the presence of Fe 2+ ions in ferrites is calculated, using the theory of Wolf, for a case that the electron hopping between Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ ions is allowed within a cluster of iron ions around some lattice defects. The calculated value of K 1 exhibits a characteristic temperature dependence, i.e. the change of the sign from positive at lower temperatures to negative at higher temperatures. It is shown that the result well agrees with the Fe 2+ contribution to K 1 estimated from the available data of the anisotropy constant for the Ni 1− x Fe 2+ x O 4 system.
