Abstract
Cu2+ doped single crystals of KH2PO4 were investigated using EPR technique at room temperature. The spectra of the complex contains large number of overlapping lines. Five sites are resolved and four of them are compatible with the tetragonal symmetry, and the fifth one belongs to an interstitial site. The results are discussed and compared with previous studies. Detailed investigation of the EPR spectra indicate that Cu2+ substitute with K+ ions. The principal values of the g and hyperfine tensors and the ground state wave function of Cu2+ ions are obtained.
