Abstract
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption studies of VO2+ ions in Lithium Sulphate Monohydrate (LSMH) single crystal are carried out at room temperature. Single crystal rotations in each of the three mutually orthogonal crystalline planes, ac, ab, cb indicate three different vanadyl complexes. Three VO2+ ions of EPR spectra indicate among them, that two of them have (the intense two) entered the lattice substitutionally and the third one occupies the interstitial position. From the angular variation, the spin Hamiltonian parameters are evaluated. From the optical absorption spectrum containing four selected bands and EPR data, various bonding parameters are determined and the nature of bonding in the crystal is discussed. Also Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) studies are carried out to confirm the Non Linear Optical (NLO) properties of the given material.
