19F NMR study of LiTbF 4 single crystals

Abstract

The angular dependences of 19F NMR spectra have been measured in the external magnetic field of 0.5 T oriented in the basis plane of LiTbF 4 at the room temperature. We have obtained the constants of transferred hyperfine interaction and the corrected set of crystal field parameters for the Tb 3+ ions in LiTbF 4. The results of simulations of the magnetization in high pulsed magnetic fields with taking into account magnetoelastic interactions agree satisfactorily with experimental data presented in the literature.
