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 formation mechanisms of paramagnetic centers originating from Zr3+ and Cr3+ ions and the influence of the nanoparticle composition on thermal generation processes of these paramagnetic centers in ZrO2 structure were studied by electron paramagnetic resonance. A set of nanosized zirconium oxide powders (nominally pure ZrO2, ZrO2 doped with correspondingly Y2O3 and Sc2O3, Cr2O3 and Y2O3, as well as Cr2O3) was investigated: The influence of annealing on the EPR lines of Zr3+ and Cr5+ ions was found to be different. Annealing curves of EPR signals caused by Cr5+ ions have a maximum in temperature range 500–600 °C. Mechanisms of Zr3+ and Cr5+ ions formation were discussed.

Ferroelectric 1 mol% Gd 3+ and 0.5 mol% Fe 3+ codoped "soft" Pb [ Zr 0.525 Ti 0.475] O 3 ceramics were studied by means of multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The obtained results prove that iron is incorporated at the [ Zr , Ti ]-site, acting as an acceptor and building a charged [Formula: see text] defect dipole with a directly coordinated oxygen vacancy for partial charge compensation. As the La 3+ ion is diamagnetic, no information is accessible about the donor. Gd 3+ is an isoelectronic and paramagnetic probe for studying A-site. On the other hand, the donor forms no defect associates with lattice vacancies and rather exists as an "isolated" functional center. Consequently, also the lead vacancies that are created for charge compensation have to exist as isolated centers in compound.

The defect structure of barium titanate ( BaTiO 3) heat-treated under reduced p O 2 has been investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The results confirm the formation of [Formula: see text]-centers. Based on the relative size of the principal values of the electron g-matrix, g⊥ > g‖, the local distortion of the oxygen octahedron about the [Formula: see text]-centers was also analyzed and the formation of [Formula: see text] defect associates unambiguously established.
