Abstract
The resonant frequency of the Cl35 nuclear quadrupole in KClO3 has been measured as a function of temperature in the range 15 deg;K to 77 deg;K; previous work between 77 deg;K and room temperature has been confirmed. Comparison has been made with Bayer's theory based on lattice vibrations and agreement is excellent. The ratio of the quadrupole coupling constant eQqzz of the two isotopes (Cl35 and CI37) has been measured at room and liquid air temperatures; significant changes have been observed in the measurements. Finally the possibility of using this temperature dependence as the basis of a sensitive thermometer has been studied; the accuracy of such a thermometer would be ±0.005 deg;K at 60 deg;K and ±0.05 deg;K at 20 deg;K.Keywords
