Abstract

An orthorhombic spectrum of U3+ in CaF2 was measured. The orthorhombic X, Y axes are found to lie in the (110) plane and the Z axis perpendicular to these axes. The X axes are at ±(19±1)° with the [11̅0] direction. There are, in general, twelve inequivalent magnetic sites. The g factors corresponding to one set of axes are gx=1.38±0.01, gy=2.85±0.02, and gz=2.94±0.01. Various models explaining this spectrum are discussed. The most likely model is that of an interstitial F- in the second-nearest neighbor position.
