Abstract
Powder samples of hydrothermally grown Cr 3+ -doped Cs 2 NaGaF 6 crystals have been investigated with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy at X - (9.5 v GHz) and Q -band (34 v GHz). Analysis of the spectra clearly demonstrates that there are two distinct Cr 3+ centres in the Cs 2 NaGaF 6 crystal, having nearly identical g factors, but differing largely from the viewpoint of their zero field splitting. By using the 53 Cr hyperfine spectra observed with electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy, it is deduced that these centres have opposite signs for the zero field splitting. The spectroscopic properties of the Cr 3+ centres in the isostructural Cs 2 NaGaF 6 and Cs 2 NaAlF 6 crystals are compared and discussed.
