Simple Model of the Dynamic Jahn‐Teller Effect in Six‐Coordinated Copper(II) Complexes

Abstract
A model potential is assumed for describing the vibrational degrees of freedom associated with the Jahn‐Teller effect in six‐coordinated copper (II) complexes. The pseudorotational limit is characterized by a potential that is constant in the region between two concentric cylinders, but becomes infinite elsewhere. The energy spectrum is obtained for both angular and radial excitations. A square‐well periodic angular potential is applied as a perturbation, yielding a localization of states. The results are used to describe the temperature dependence of the electron spin resonance spectra of copper (II) complexes with emphasis on the system NaCl:Cu(II) containing the hexachlorocuprate (II) complex
