Abstract:
© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. We report the observation of the conventional and pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectra from 19F and 7Li nuclei on impurity Nd3+ ions in LiYF4 crystal doped with Nd3+ ions in parallel orientation at microwave frequency of ν ≈ 95 GHz (W-band). The resolved structure from the nearby and remote nuclei in spectra is observed. The outcome shows that LiYF4:Nd3+ system can be exploited as a convenient matrix for performing spin manipulations and adjusting quantum computation protocols while ENDOR technique is usable for the investigation of electron-nuclear interaction with the nuclei of the system.
