Abstract

The ESR and optical spectra of CuAlS2: V3+ has been studied by using crystal- and ligand-field theory. The energy Hamiltonian and ESR formulae for 3d2 electronic configurations at a tetragonal MX4 complex have been derived from the two spin–orbital coupling parameters model. The contribution from the spin–orbit coupling of the ligand to ESR and optical spectra has been considered in the calculations. The calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental findings and show that V3+ ion substitutes for Cu+-site.
