Zhang %J Condensed Matter Physics %D 2012 %I Institute for Condensed Matter Physics %X The EPR parameters g factors and the superhyperfine parameters for the tetrahedral [FeX4]- clusters in AgX (X=Cl, Br) are theoretically investigated from the perturbation formulas of these parameters for a 3d5 ion under tetrahedra by considering both the crystal-field and charge transfer contributions.The related model parameters are quantitatively determined from the cluster approach in a uniform way. The g-shift ¦¤g (=g-gs, where gs¡Ö2.0023 is the spin only value) from the charge transfer contribution is opposite (positive) in sign and much larger in magnitude as compared with that from the crystal-field one. The importance of the charge transfer contribution increases rapidly with increasing the covalency and the spin-orbit coupling coefficient of the ligand and thus exhibits the order of AgCl < AgBr. The unpaired spin densities of the halogen ns, np¦Ò and np¦Ð orbitals are quantitatively determined from the related molecular orbital coefficients based on the cluster approach. %K crystal-fields and spin Hamiltonians %K electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) %U http://dx.doi.org/10.5488/CMP.15.13703
