EPR g factors of trigonal Dy(3+) center in ThO(2) crystal.
The perturbation formulas of EPR g factors g(parallel) and g( perpendicular ) for the lowest Kramers doublet of 6H(15/2) of a 4f(9) ion in trigonal symmetry are established in this paper. In these formulas, besides the contribution due to the interaction within the lowest 6H(15/2) manifolds considered in the previous papers, the contributions due to the J-mixing among the 6H(15/2), 6H(13/2) (first excited state) and 6H(11/2) (second excited state) via crystal-field interaction, the admixtures among the states with the same J value via spin-orbit coupling interaction and those between the lowest Kramers doublet Gammagamma and other Kramers doublets Gamma(X) within the states 6H(J) (J=15/2,13/2,11/2) via crystal-field and orbital angular momentum interactions are included. From these formulas, the g factors g(parallel) and g( perpendicular ) for the trigonal Dy(3+) center in ThO(2) crystal are calculated. The results are discussed.
