Abstract

ESR spectra of Cr3+ at K-site in KH3(SeO3)2 crystal have been studied. Below Tc, there are two kinds of inequivalent Cr3+ sites whose principal coordinate systems (X, Y and Z) of D-tensor are slightly rotated around Z-axis each other. The critical exponent value β was estimated to be 0.50±0.02 from the difference in principal value between the two inequivalent sites. The experimental results indicate that reorientation of SeO32− groups is accompanied by proton ordering and K ion displacement in the ac plane perpendicular to the O(2)–H(2)–O(2) bond direction below Tc. ESR spectra corresponding to single domain were observed by application of shear stress X4.
