AbstractThe zero-field splitting and g-values of manganocene and chromocene have been calculated. The wave functions were obtained by means of a self-consistent charge extended Huckel method. The calculated values g||=2.0034 and g⊥ = 2.0033 of manganocene agree fairly well with the experi­mental results obtained from ESR measurements. The very large computed zero-field splitting D= -0.24 cm-1 explains that there has been observed only one ESR transition though mangano­cene is in a spin-5/2 state. For chromocene no ESR transition has been found until now. We therefore studied the splitting of the orbitally degenerate ground state by the combined action of spin-orbit coupling and low-symmetry perturbation. The predicted splitting is strongly dependent on the magnitude of the rhombic distortion compared to the spin-orbit interaction. The g-values are highly anisotropic, with g|| =2.49 and g⊥ =1.97

The CASSCF and hybrid CASSCF–MRMP2 methods reproduce the ZFS tensors of spin-septet 2,4,6-trinitrenopyridines, focusing on the heavy atom effects on the spin–orbit terms of the tensors.

In non-annealed 6H-SiC samples that were electron irradiated at room temperature, a new EPR signal due to a S=1 defect center with exceptionally large zero-field splitting (D = +652•10-4 cm-1) has been observed under illumination. A positive sign of D demonstrates that the spin-orbit contribution to the zero-field splitting exceeds by far that of the spin-spin interaction. A principal axis of the fine structure tilted by 59° against the crystal c-axis as well as the exceptionally high zero-field splitting D can be qualitatively understood by the occurrence of additional close-lying defect levels in defect clusters resulting in comparatively large second-order spin-orbit coup¬ling. A tentative assignment to vacancy clusters is supported by the observed annealing behavior.
