Abstract

Zero-field splitting (ZFS) parameters D and E are calculated using the superposition model (SPM) for Mn2+ ion in potassium hydrogen sulphate (KHS) single crystal. The ZFS parameters D = 59.4 × 10–4 cm−1 and E = 8 × 10–4 cm−1 obtained are compared with the experimental values for substitutional site of Mn2+ ion. The SPM provide ZFS parameters similar to those of experimental ones. This supports the result of experimental study that the impurity ion occupies substitutional K+ site in KHS.
