Abstract
Low-frequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) is used to extract the EPR parameter A-mid and support the approximate X-band value of g-mid for Ba(Co(y)Zn(1/3-y)Ta(2/3))O₃. Although the cobalt hyperfine structure for the |±1/2〉 state is often unresolved at X-band or S-band, it is resolved in measurements on this compound. This allows for detailed analysis of the molecular orbital for the |±1/2〉 state, which is often the ground state. Moreover, this work shows that the EPR parameters for Co substituted into Zn compounds give important insight into the properties of zinc binding sites.
