Electron Paramagnetic Resonance of Cr3+ Ions in ABO3 (A = Sc, In, Ga) Diamagnetic Crystals

A magnetic resonance method is applied to the investigation of a number of isostructural diamagnetic compounds ABO 3 (A = Sc, In, and Ga) with small additions of Cr 3+ ions ( S = 3/2) sufficient to observe single-ion and pair spectra. It is shown that the resonance spectra for isolated Cr 3+ ions ca...

Summary:A magnetic resonance method is applied to the investigation of a number of isostructural diamagnetic compounds ABO 3 (A = Sc, In, and Ga) with small additions of Cr 3+ ions ( S = 3/2) sufficient to observe single-ion and pair spectra. It is shown that the resonance spectra for isolated Cr 3+ ions can be described to a good accuracy by the ordinary axial spin Hamiltonian for 3 d ions in octahedral oxygen environment. The parameters of the spin Hamiltonian are determined for single Cr 3+ ion and Cr 3+ –Cr 3+ pair. Lattice distorsions of the parent ABO 3 crystals caused by the Cr 3+ impurities is discussed.
