The gyromagnetic factors g∥, g⊥ and the hyperfine structure constants A∥ and A⊥ of the tetragonal Cu2+ center in KTaO3 are theoretically studied in this work. Based on the analyses of the electron paramagnetic resonance results of this center, it is found that the impurity Cu2+ occupies the octahedral Ta5+ site, associated with a nearest-neighbouring oxygen vacancy VO along the C4 axis. Due to the electrostatic repulsion of VO, Cu2+ is displaced away from VO by ΔZ(≈ −0.29 Å ) along the C4 axis. The theoretical values of the g and A factors based on the above defect structure and the impurity displacement agreee reasonably with the experimental data.

The technique of detecting electron paramagnetic resonance and measuring paramagnetic relaxation times at liquid-helium temperatures by the magneto-optical Faraday rotation has been applied to the even number (4f2) electron system of Pr3+ in praseodymium ethylsulphate (PrES). The EPR spectrum (X band) of undiluted PrES at 1.37 °K is a broad band extending over several kilo-gauss with no evidence of hyperfine structure. The band intensity decreases at [Formula: see text] and covers [Formula: see text] from its maximum to half-power point. The absence of any hyperfine structure indicates that crystal-field distortion is the main source of line broadening.The relaxation times measured as a function of temperature over the range 1.40 to 2.18 °K and at 4.22 °K range from 0.1 to 10 msec. For [Formula: see text], τ decreases from 0.40 to 0.15 msec, is proportional to T−(3.5 ± 0.6), and is considered to be the phonon–bath relaxation time. Values of τ show a scatter within 0.20 ± 0.02 msec for [Formula: see text]. Near the λ point [Formula: see text], τ exhibits a very rapid increase, having a value of 0.20 msec at 2.155 °K and 0.85 msec at 2.165 °K. This behavior appears to be related to the energy exchange between the crystal and liquid-helium bath. Measurements of τ at 2.18 °K and 4.22 °K indicate that the rate at which the spin–phonon system returns to initial thermal equilibrium is governed by the thermal conductivity of the liquid-helium bath.

AbstractGrowth conditions and electron paramagnetic resonance investigations of two well oriented KSm(WO4)2 and KEr(WO4)2 single crystals have been presented and discussed. Hyperfine structure of Sm3+ ion was detected and analyzed for angular and temperature dependences. EPR spectra of KEr(WO4)2 and its angular dependence showed the presence of 5 magnetically nonequivalent Er centers in the crystal. A change in the type of magnetic interactions was analyzed using mixed (Gaussian and Lorentzian) fits of the EPR spectra.
