摘要
We have measured the spin-lattice coefficients of Eu2+ and Gd3+ in CaF2 and Gd3+ in CaO by studying the effect of uniaxial stress on the EPR spectra of these ions. The experimental data show that fourth-order terms in the spin-lattice Hamiltonian give significant contributions. The values of the second-order spin-lattice coefficients are given, and the fourth-order contribution is tentatively identified as due to the change of the cubic field splitting with stress. From the value of the fourth-order coefficient, we conclude that at least half of the temperature dependence of the cubic field parameter is due to the effect of the lattice expansion. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
