Abstract
Time differential perturbed angular correlation and nuclear orientation studies of the electric quadrupole interaction for Hg in Sb have been performed. The effective field gradients |V effzz (HgSb)|=1.43(18)×1017V cm−2 at room temperature andV effzz (HgSb)=+1.8(2) × 1017V cm−2 below 0.05 K have been derived. These two values are no indication for an anomalous temperature dependence of the effective field gradient for Hg in Sb. The value of the electric field gradient fits well into the systematics for Hg in other hosts. It is shown that the electronic enhancements of the field gradients are correlated to the valence of the impurities and are rather insensitive to the host properties.
