Abstract: | O17 nuclear magnetic resonance has been observed in metallic V2O3 with frequency shifts from (?0.10 ± 0.02)-(?0.05 ± 0.02) per cent between 170 and 460°K respectively, a linewidth of 37 ± 5 oe and spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 ≈ 60 sec?1 at 296°K. From these quantities, covalency parameters fs/2S = ? 0.35 × 10?3 and ?π/2S ≈ ? 0.07 are calculated. One of the two vanadium 3d electrons in the antiferromagnetic state below the 170°K metal-insulator transition is inferred to lie in a non-magnetic state, while covalent charge transfer augments the spin moment of the other 3d electron to the observed 1.2 μB. |
