Abstract: | The parameters of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of S ion pairs in diamagnetic crystals are analyzed. A relation between the spin Hamiltonian constants is established for solitary ions and pairs for (CH3)4NCdCl3: Mn2+ crystals. In contrast to solitary ions, an additional contribution (which is a linear function of the exchange field) to the “single-ion” spin Hamiltonian constants appears in the case of pairs. It is shown that anisotropic exchange mechanisms do not play a significant part in the formation of the axial constant of the spin Hamiltonian for this crystal. Some aspects of the method of studying “single-ion” anisotropy predicted by the two-ion model are developed with the help of an isostructural diamagnetic analog with impurity concentration of the paramagnetic ions of a magnetically concentrated substance sufficiently high for observing the EPR spectrum of the pairs. It is found that the microscopic quantities determined partially from the EPR spectra for pairs and solitary Mn2+ ions in (CH3)4NCdCl3 are in accord with the experimental value of the effective field for the (CH3)4NMnCl3 crystal anisotropy which can be described primarily by the dipole and “single-ion” mechanisms of the exchange origin. |
