Abstract
AbstractThe temperature behavior of the EPR spectra of the Gd^3+ impurity center in single crystals of SrMoO_4 in the temperature range T = 99–375 K is studied. The analysis of the temperature dependences of the spin Hamiltonian b _2 ^0 ( T ) = b _2( F ) + b _2( L ) and P _2 ^0 ( T ) = P _2( F ) + P _2( L ) (for Gd^157) describing the EPR spectrum and contributing to the Gd^3+ ground state splitting Δ E is carried out. In terms of the Newman model, the values of b _2( L ) and P _2( L ) depending on the thermal expansion of the static lattice are estimated; the b _2( F ) and P _2( F ) spin-phonon contributions determined by the lattice ion oscillations are separated. The analysis of b _2 ^0 ( T ) and P _2 ^0 ( T ) is evidence of the positive contribution of the spin-phonon interaction; the model of the local oscillations of the impurity cluster with close frequencies ω describes well the temperature behavior of b _2( F ) and P _2( F ).
