EPR and pulsed NMR study of (NH4)2ZnBr4:Mn2+

The EPR and pulsed NMR measurements of (NH₄)₂ZnBr₄:Mn²⁺ have been carried out in the temperature range 110–473 K and 83–284 K, respectively. EPR spectra from three different paramagnetic entities have been observed. Intensity changes of certain lines in the EPR spectrum observed at ≈ 430 K indicate the occurrence of a phase transition. Another phase transition at ≈ 235 K is indicated as a change of slope in the T₁ vs 1/T curve.
