Jac. Neto et Nv. Vugman, Electron spin relaxation via vibronic level of rhodium(II) hexacyanide complex in KCl crystal, J MAGN RES, 150(2), 2001, pp. 105-109
Electron spin-lattice relaxation rates for the low-spin [Rh(CN)(6)](4-) com
plex in KCl were measured by the inversion recovery and saturation recovery
techniques, in the range of 5 to 30 K. Angular variation experiments indic
ate that electron spin-lattice relaxation times present axial symmetry. The
data fit very well to a relaxation process involving localized anharmonic
vibration modes, also responsible for the g tensor temperature dependence.
