Abstract
We have measured the hyperfine interactions in YbVO4 and YbPO4 using Yb-172 perturbed angular correlation spectroscopy for 90 - 1094 keV and 1094 - 79 keV gamma-gamma cascades. The quadrupole interaction frequency varied with temperature from 0 to 2 GHz. Precise information was obtained from both ca scades independently even using the cascade with the intermediate state of the half life as short as 1.6 ns.
