Abstract
Electron spin resonance measurements on Nd ions in Pr(BrO3)39H2O (PrBR) have been carried out at 4.2 K to examine the symmetry of the rare‐earth sites. The results are not compatible with recent diffraction studies which identified the crystal as hexagonal with D3h rare‐earth site symmetry. The spectra show a large number of inequivalent sites with probably only reflection symmetry, repeating every 60° in the plane perpendicular to the long axis of the crystal. These results appear to be consistent with the twinned pseudohexagonal C122v structure also proposed for this compound.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
