Abstract
The EPR spectrum of single crystals of scandium orthosilicate doped with chromium was studied in the X-band. In the crystallographic and local coordinate systems, the parameters of the spin Hamiltonians of two Cr3+ centers that have replaced scandium in the nonequivalent triclinic positions demonstrate orthorhombic symmetry in the principal axes are determined. The spectrum of the Gd3+ center localized in one of scandium position was discovered and studied, and the parameters of the fine structure of its ground state were determined. In the studied crystals, EPR signals of unidentified paramagnetic centers also were observed.
