Abstract
133Cs (I=7/2) nuclear magnetic resonance in a Cs 2CuCl 4 single crystal grown by using the slow evaporation method was measured in its three mutually perpendicular crystal planes. The 133Cs resonances of two different groups with two crystallographically inequivalent cesium nuclei, Cs(I) and Cs(II), in the unit cell were recorded. The transferred hyperfine fields for Cs(I) and Cs(II) calculated from the paramagnetic shift and the molecular susceptibility measurements could be expressed by the linear equation H hf= AT+ B. The angular dependence of the 133Cs nuclear magnetic resonance spectra showed that the Cs(I) and the Cs(II) nuclei had different values for the quadrupole coupling constant. The electric field gradient tensors of Cs(I) and Cs(II) were symmetric, and the orientations of their principal axes did not coincide. The Cs(I) ion surrounded by 11 chlorine ions had a small quadrupole parameter, a smaller charge distribution, and a small value for the transferred hyperfine field. However, the Cs(II) ion surrounded by nine chlorine ions had a larger quadrupole parameter, a larger charge distribution, and a larger value for the transferred hyperfine field.
