Description

In this paper, the third-order perturbation formulas of EPR g factors gi (i=x, y, z) for d9 ions in rhombic symmetry where the ground state being an admixture of vertical bar dx2-y2> and vertical bar dz2> states are derived. These formulas are based on a two-spin-orbit-parameter model in which the contributions to g factors due to both the spin-orbit parameter of the central 3dn ion and that of ligand ion are included. From these formulas, the g factors gi for the rhombic CuCl64- clusters in (3-chloroanilinium)8[CdCl6]Cl4:Cu2+ crystal are calculated. The calculated values are in good agreement with those obtained by the complete diagonalization (of energy matrix) method and experimental values. Results are discussed.
