Abstract:	Temperature dependent EPR measurements on copper doped Rb₂ZnCl₄ single crystals allowed us to evidence and study the P2₁cn↔C1c1 structural phase transition that takes place in this compound at 74.6 K. From the two types of Cu²⁺ centers localized at different anionic sites, called Cu²⁺(I) and Cu²⁺(II), which are formed in this compound, only the Cu²⁺(II) centers exhibit observable changes in their EPR spectra, attributable to the symmetry lowering. The observed changes have been related to the soft-mode responsible for the structural phase transition.
