Abstract
Multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy on oriented single crystals of magnetically dilute Gd(III) ions in Gd0.004Y0.996(trensal) is used to determine the Hamiltonian parameters of the ground 8S7/2 term and its phase memory time, Tm, characterizing its coherent spin dynamics. The vanishing orbital angular momentum of the 8S7/2 term makes it relatively insensitive to spin-lattice relaxation mediated by magnetoelastic coupling and leads to a Tm of 12 μs at 3 K, which is not limited by spin-lattice relaxation.
