Abstract:
The EPR parameters (g factors, g(parallel), g(perdendicular) and zero-field splitting D) for Fe+ in Cd2+ site and Fe3+ in Si4+ site of CdSiP2 semiconductor are calculated from the distinct high-order perturbation formulas. From the calculations, the local tetragonal distortions and hence the local tilting angles tau (which are different from the corresponding host values) for both paramagnetic centers are estimated. The results are discussed.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
