Single-crystal electron spin resonance studies of gadolinium trisilyl-amide and sodium gadolinium dipicolinate (pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate)
Abstract
The X-band e.s.r. spectra of Gd3+ doped into single crystals of Na3[La(C7H3NO4)3}·15H2O and into La{N(SiMe3)2]3 are reported and interpreted in terms of the same spin Hamiltonian. The zero-field splitting of 4.66 cm–1 obtained for Gd[N(SiMe3)2]3 appears to be the largest yet reported for Gd3+.
