Abstract: | The optical absorption spectrum of Er3+ in ErCrO3 in the phasesΓ 1,Γ 2 andΓ 4 has been studied as a function of temperature and applied magnetic field. The experimental data for the Er3+ ground doublet splitting are analyzed using a single ion molecular field approach. The analysis shows that the Cr — Er interaction is predominantly antisymmetric exchange, the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction being an order of magnitude smaller. The Er — Er interaction is of exchange as well as of dipolar origin. |
