Abstract
In this paper, magnetic dipolar-induced spin dephasing is considered for localized electronic triplet spin states in solids. Using a projection operator formalism, expressions are derived to describe the Hahn-echo decay behavior for an ensemble of triplet spins at zero- and low-magnetic field strengths. For triplet states localized on non-axially symmetric molecules (or defects) it is shown that, at zero field, cross-relaxation with rapidly relaxing spins is essential in the dipolar-induced dephasing process; secular spin-spin interactions become important only in the presence of a static magnetic field or hyperfine couplings. The results are used to relate experimental dephasing data previously obtained for photoexcited triplet states of axially- and non-axially symmetric defects in CaO.
