Abstract
The single crystal electronic spectrum of Cu2+ in rubidium magnesium sulphate hexahydrate is interpreted in terms of the crystal field ofD 2h symmetry. From the EPR spectrum of the polycrystalline sample theg andA-values and hence the bonding parameter (α 2) are evaluated. Orbital reduction parameters are calculated by correlating the optical and EPR data.
