AbstractThe EPR spectrum of a previously unreported paramagnetic centre formed in kaolin minerals by exposure to γ radiation is described. This centre, which is referred to here as the ‘C-centre’, was seen initially during an investigation of the radiation dose response of the EPR signal in the natural Lampang kaolin from northern Thailand, and its EPR properties are now presented for a purified sample from this material. They suggest a paramagnetic centre with rhombic symmetry based on O− associated with a single 27Al atom. Computer simulations suggest spin Hamiltonian parameters of g1 = 1.976, g3 = 2.0417 and A(27Al) = 2.10 mT, with g2 ≈ 2.01. This C-centre was also seen as a minor radiationinduced component in both crude and purified Ranong kaolin samples, along with a stronger signal from the B-centre radical. It seems to be associated with the kaolinite component, but was lost on annealing to 300°C after which only the signal from the A-centre was visible.

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies of Mn2+ impurity in single crystals of diammonium hexaaqua magnesium(II) sulfate have been carried out at 9.3 GHz (X-band) at room temperature. The EPR spectra exhibit a group of five fine structure transitions. The spin-Hamiltonian parameters were determined. Mn2+ enters the lattice interstitially. The EPR spectrum of a powder sample supports the data obtained by single crystal studies. - PACS number: 76.30

Cu2+-doped K3H(CO3)2, Rb2CO3, and Rb2KH(CO3)2 single crystals were investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The EPR spectrum of K3H(CO3)2 indicates two different sites for Cu2+ at room and at low temperatures. But the signals for the two sites overlap at 318 K which is attributed to a disorder phase transition. Each of the other compounds exhibits one site. The Cu2+ ion seems to substitute the K+ and Rb+ ions and the charge compensations are fulfilled by the proton vacancies in K3H(CO3)2, and another K+ and Rb+ in the other compounds. The spin Hamiltonian parameters g and A for each compound are determined and discussed.

The spin-Hamiltonian parameters describing the EPR spectrum of Mn2+ in CsCl crystals grown from solutilon have been determined. The line-width data are in agreement with the manganese ions being incorporated interstitially rather than substitutionally for Cs+ ions. From the work on Mn2+ in NH4Cl we infer that the fine structure parameter, D2, is negative.

AbstractThe EPR spectrum of an Eu^2+ impurity center in a SrMoO_4 single crystal in the temperature range T = 1.8, 111–300 K has been studied, and the temperature changes in the spin Hamiltonian parameters describing the EPR spectrum of odd europium isotopes have been determined. It is shown that small temperature changes in the diagonal parameters of the spin Hamiltonian (for odd Eu^2+ isotopes) $$b_{2}^{0}$$ ( T ) = b _2( F ) + b _2( L ) and $$P_{2}^{0}$$ ( T ) = P _2( F ) + P _2( L ) are explained by the compensation of spin–phonon contributions b _2( F ) and P _2( F ) by the contributions of the lattice thermal expansion b _2( L ) and P _2( L ). The quantities b _2( L ) and P _2( L ) that are dependent on the static lattice parameters at a given temperature, are estimated in terms of the superposition Newman model. Then, the spin–phonon b _2( F ) and P _2( F ) contributions determined by the lattice ion vibrations are separated. An analysis shows that $$b_{2}^{0}$$ ( F ) and $$P_{2}^{0}$$ ( F ) > 0, b _2( L ) and P _2( L ) < 0, and the temperature behavior of the spin–phonon contribution is well described by G. Pfister’s model of local vibrations.

In freestandingn-type 4H-SiC epilayers irradiated with low-energy (250 keV) electrons at room temperature, the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum of the negative carbon vacancy at the hexagonal site, VC- (h), and a new signal were observed. From the similarity in defect formation and the spin-Hamiltonian parameters of the two defects, the new center is suggested to be the negative C vacancy at the quasi-cubic site, VC- (k). The identification is further supported by hyperfine calculations.

AbstractThe EPR spectrum of yttrium and scandium silicate single crystals doped with chromium has been studied at various frequencies. Y_2SiO_5 has one triclinic Cr^3+ center, while the Sc_2SiO_5 crystals demonstrate two nonequivalent centers. The spin Hamiltonian parameters of these centers have been determined. These centers are found to be tricharged chromium ions localized in the yttrium and scandium positions.

In this report, Fe 3+ impurity ions present in green sapphire ( Al 2 O 3) were studied experimentally, by heating a light green sapphire in flowing oxygen atmosphere for 12 h from 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500 and 1600°C, respectively. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra in X-band (~9.45 GHz ) were recorded by mounting the crystal with the c-axis perpendicular (θ = 90°) to the magnetic field direction. The spectra were recorded and simulated by a numerical diagonalization of spin Hamiltonian matrix in the range from 0 to 180 degrees for every 15 degrees of rotation angle (φ). In our case, only the last two sets of peaks strongly depend on the rotation angle (φ), and each exhibits C 3 symmetry due to two magnetically inequivalent Fe 3+ sites in the corundum structure. For polycrystalline ESR spectra, seven main Fe 3+ ESR absorption peaks occur at the resonance magnetic fields of 100.20, 310.24, 486.80, 525.00, 550.60, 761.00 and 777.00 mT respectively. Specifically, ESR signals show that the number of paramagnetic Fe 3+ ions increase roughly linearly with the heat treating temperature, having the [Formula: see text] ratio ~1.41 at 1600°C.
