Abstract
Wurtzite type CdS single crystals with tin impurities have been reinvestigated by means of magnetic resonance. The by far strongest neighbour interaction with the rare isotope33S is detectable by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), while nine weaker cadmium interactions can be resolved with the electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) technique. Three distinct shell symmetries are detected and can be explained by the wurtzite lattice symmetry. The parameters evaluated are interpreted in terms of the LCAO approach. An additional Sn-related spectrum, being not resolvable by ordinary EPR was identified by means of ENDOR-induced-EPR (EI-EPR) and turned out to be associated with Lithium.
