Abstract

The anisotropic g -factors of Co 2+ ion in the crystal field of orthorhombic symmetry have been calculated taking into account the effects of the excited orbital states. Following the same procedure as developed by Abragam and Pryce, the admixture of the excited orbital states to the ground state can be comprized in effective Lande factors for the fictitious orbital angular momentum l (=1). The dependence of the g -factors on the crystal field parameters has been calculated and compared with some experimental data.
