The hyperfine interactions in Eu2+ located substitutionally in CaWO4 have been accurately measured at a temperature of 4.2 °K by the method of electron–nuclear double resonance. These measurements were made in an attempt to determine the effects of the crystal field on the hyperfine interactions by comparison with results obtained for atomic Eu and Eu2+ in CaF2.The results have been fitted with a 12-parameter hyperfine Hamiltonian. Four of these parameters are used to represent an anisotropic quadrupole interaction and three to represent an anisotropic contribution of the form J3I. It is found that the spherically averaged quadrupole interaction is shifted by almost 20% from its value in CaF2. The nuclear g factor is also found to be shitted and anisotropic. These results are discussed in terms of a crystal-field induced shielding of the nuclear moments.

AbstractThe electronic structure of nitrogen donors in 6H-, 4H- and 3C-SiC is investigated by measuring the nitrogen hyperfine (hf) interactions with electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) and the temperature dependence of the hf split electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra. Superhyperfine (shf) interactions with many shells of 13C and 29Si were measured in 6H-SiC. The hf and shf interactions are discussed in the framework of effective mass theory. The temperature dependence is explained with the thermal occupation of the lowest valley-orbit split A1 and E states. It is proposed that the EPR spectra of P donors observed previously in neutron transmuted 6H-SiC at low temperature (<10K) and high temperature (>60K) are all due to substitutional P donors on the two quasi-cubic and hexagonal Si sites, whereby at low temperature the E state is occupied and at high temperature the A1 state. The low temperature spectra are thus thought not to be due to P-vacancy pair defects as proposed previously.
