title: EPR spectra of Cu(2+) in KH(2)PO(4) single crystals.
abstract: Cu(2+) doped single crystals of KH(2)PO(4) were investigated using EPR technique at room temperature. The spectra of the complex contains large number of overlapping lines. Five sites are resolved and four of them are compatible with the tetragonal symmetry, and the fifth one belongs to an interstitial site. The results are discussed and compared with previous studies. Detailed investigation of the EPR spectra indicate that Cu(2+) substitute with K(+) ions. The principal values of the g and hyperfine tensors and the ground state wave function of Cu(2+) ions are obtained.
